Organic Garlic Cledor – Late-Maturing Provençal Softneck
Cledor is a classic softneck garlic, suitable for plaiting and valued for its late harvest and excellent keeping qualities. The bulbs are firm and white‑skinned, storing well into the following spring. Flavour is clean and aromatic, slightly stronger than early varieties, making it an indispensable choice for the winter kitchen.
Planting Instructions
Plant Cledor in autumn for the best results. Select a sunny, well‑drained spot with fertile soil. Separate the bulb into cloves, planting each one point upward, 15 cm apart in rows 30 cm wide, at a depth of 2–3 cm. Keep beds clear of weeds and water sparingly. Cease watering once the foliage yellows. Harvest in midsummer and dry bulbs thoroughly before storing in a cool, airy place, where they will keep reliably for many months.
Healing and Health Benefits
Like all garlic, Cledor contains high levels of allicin, linked to cardiovascular support, reduced cholesterol and improved circulation. It offers natural antibacterial and antifungal properties and acts as a source of antioxidants, helping protect the body against free‑radical damage. Revered both in the kitchen and in traditional medicine, organic Cledor provides flavour, resilience and health in equal measure.
As garlic is an allium we recommend planting with leeks, chives, spring onions and Nectaroscordum siculum.
