Sorry we are almost sold out of seed garlic and are no longer taking orders until we reassess our inventory this weekend. . Our products are certified organic and a copy of our certification is available upon request. We have added several categories to the specifications for each variety: Size is the approximate size for each bulb. For our seed garlic we sell only bulbs of suitable size that will produce good size plants in the next year, and typical of the grade that we use for our own planting. Typically is a mixture of medium to large size for the particular variety. Cloves per bulb is approximate as some varieties have different numbers of cloves per bulb, while others are fairly consistent. Maturity is a relative number expressed in days based on the first variety to mature. "Early" means first to mature, "Mid" means typically 5-10 days later, and "Late" means last to mature. This spec is useful if you are planting a larger crop and want flexibility at harvest time. Storage is an approximate storage time for bulbs based on our experience and for bulbs stored under proper conditions. Note that very large bulbs typically have the shortest storage life while small bulbs with tight wrappers usually store the longest. If you are planning to store garlic past summer, you may want to try several varieties based on this parameter. All orders received in a a given week will be shipped out Monday of the following week. Purple Stripe - Hardneck GarlicPersian Star
Chesnok Red
Porcelain GarlicGusto Russian Red PorcelainGusto Russian Red originally came from Gabriola Garlic and has become one of our popular varieties. Though bulb size can vary, bulbs up to 2.5 inches in diameter are common. This garlic is a little on the milder side compared with some of the hard necks, but is still high in flavor. It is very popular for its clove size as several cloves usually provide an ample amount of garlic for a serving.
Darcy's Russian Red
Although the origin is not precisely known we believe this porcelain garlic to be a Russian Red which was the name when we acquired it. We started our garlic farm with 10 of these bulbs and it has become one of our favorites. It is a great west coast producer with very large bulbs; slightly milder but still zesty. Some prefer this for Caesar salads and other recipes requiring raw garlic. This is a favorite at farmer's markets due to its large size and large cloves.Great for roasting.
Leningrad GarlicLeningrad garlic is one of our tastier garlic varieties. .it has Gusto! One of our favorites and good for flavoring roasts, stews or other cooked dishes. The bulb normally has 4 cloves, but sometimes 6. They are tightly wrapped when dry and this garlic stores well.
Georgian CrystalGeorgian cyrstal is a porcelain garlic. We are in our first year of production on this variety and it produced well. Sorry, we are saving the entire harvest for planting for the upcoming year.
Portugese
Rocambole GarlicKorean PurpleKorean Purple is a hardy racombole garlic with great spicy flavor. A favorite amongst garlic connoisseurs. We acquired the seed for this garlic from Boundary Garlic as a bulbil and it is in our third year of production. As such, some of the bulbs we are selling are slightly smaller than typical mature size. This garlic should produce bubls in the 2"- 4" size in upcoming years of production. The green leaves of this garlic are shorter than most garlic, but it produces a nice size bulb and is a brilliant purlple.
YugoslavianYugoslavian is a rocambole garlic. We are in our first year of production on this variety and it produced well. Sorry, this has yielded large bulbs and we are saving the entire harvest for planting for the upcoming year.
