The garlic bulbs I'd planted in the styrofoam box looked to be struggling. Compared to the ones I put in the garden, the leaves were not as green and they didn't seem to be growing anymore.
I transplanted them to the end of the new garden bed. You should have seen the root system actually growing into the styrofoam!! Three of them didn't survive the move, so I pulled them up today. They are so cute! about the size of cocktail onion and a nice white and purple colour.
Apparently it's not too late to plant bulbs, you can trick them into thinking they have been through winter by putting them in the fridge for a week. They should be ready for summer.
