Good morning!
We planted our garlic bulbs after the first frost, and we have gotten quite a bit of above-ground growth since then. Will the garlic be ok over the winter? Should we bury the tops in mulch? Right now, we have a thin layer of mulch and downed leaves on top of the garlic (but the sprouts are above that now). Thank you!
