I find it very difficult to get Australian garlic in my local area of Lismore NSW. How hard is it to grow in our area which is the Northern Rivers.

Hiya, I'm also in Lismore :) Have you found any good sources of garlic yet? I'm having visions of planting huge amounts of garlic all around my new fruit orchard- both for fun and pest control :)

You should have no problem. Just choose the right type of garlic. Diggers Club (www.diggers.com.au) sells a variety called Southern Glen which is suitable for warmer climates. I'm growing the same even though I'm in Melbourne and mine are about to be harvested. Good luck.
