We have been saving our own seed garlic for 5 years. We believe that our garlics are well adapted to our Virginia climate. All of our garlic is naturally-grown, using organic fertilizers and is 100% chemical-free!
Descriptions of Garlic Varieties:
Music Pink is a hardneck garlic meaning that it produces a flower stalk. It usually produces 4-5 large cloves per head. The flavor is hot and pungent and long-lasting.
Korean Red is a large bulb containing 4-8 cloves per bulb. It is a hradneck but does not produce a flower in southern climates. It is very hot in flavor and is a good keeper. it produces more per pound than other hardneck varieties.
Silver Rose is a softneck of the silverskin variety. It typically has 8-12 cloves per head. This garlic is great for braiding and it stores well, up to a year in perfect conditions. It is a bit milder than the hardnecks and is a great producer.
Purple Italian is a softneck of the artichoke variety which means that the cloves are layered like an artichoke- it may have up to 20 cloves per head! It is a classic Italian variety that becomes somewhat sweet when cooked. It is also great for braiding and is a heavy producer.
