When to plant garlic in the United Kingdom: 10 Oct – end of December

Garlic in the United Kingdom: plant from 10 October to the end of December; the window opens earliest in Edinburgh and closes latest in London (40 cities).

From a month before the first autumn frost, so the roots grow before winter, to the late-planting limit on each crop’s page (about two weeks before the ground freezes, by ten years of weather).
