It's a shame but you can still use it for flavouring so it won't be a total loss, you could even let them all bolt so you get the Scapes as well you can get some great recipes off youtube/google.

Hi Jamsey, what are scrapes?

Scales are the flowering stems before they open and are fabulous to eat

Scapes are the flower stalks of garlic.

ok, here are a few more pics of the morado garlic, that starting growing in a peculiar manner a few weeks ago.

THey look terrible!!!!!!!!!!!

And now have rust!!!!!!

Should I leave them? Or pull them up?

Am I correct in saying that they have bolted, because each individual clove has started growing?

I am not growing this variety ever again!!
