Elephant Garlic bulbils?

All these questions about "When do I.........plant, dehead, harvest etc" have made me realise that Elephant Garlic is a No Rules Veg. I've planted it whenever I think about it, dug it up whenever I wanted some, left it in the ground to do its own thing, never taken the flower heads off unless they were dead etc. I still have some cloves leftover from the ones that I sent you in the seed swap, I'll be bunging those in the ground too.
What I'm trying to say is - don't worry about it, follow your instincts. When you have a bit of ground and, a few minutes free time, plant a few EG cloves.  I replant in the same two areas every year and I leave some cloves in the ground undug, not deliberately, but because I don't need them. They all grow back.

Much the same for normal garlic, it can be planted at any time and you'll still get a crop!
