I've bought seed garlic from Marshalls seeds for the past couple of years as I was unable to find a source in Ireland. The garden centres around here only stock garlic in the Spring and don't seem to have heard of Autumn sowing!
Marshalls are here: http://www.marshalls-seeds.co.uk/
The Garlic Farm is based on the Isle of Wight (I think) where most UK garlic comes from. You can buy direct from them too: http://www.thegarlicfarm.co.uk |

I picked up some Germidour, Thermidrome and Cristo in Johnstown garden centre. They also have these varieties in Newlands garden centre. I believe Johnstown have Marco and lautrec wight aswell but there were none left when I was up there. I've been looking for German red, but can't find any suppliers at all in the UK or ireland so if anyone hears of any, let me know.
