Mid-season, softneck garlic that was brought to the U.S. by Italian immigrants. Bulbs can be stored 6-9 months, and have 4-7 large cloves which are easy to peel and spicy. This flavorful garlic is great for a wide range of uses including roasting and with kebap. Bulbs can be stored up to 6-9 months. Cloves have purple stripes with a spicy flavor that mellows when cooked. Easy to peel!
Our seed garlic has been stewarded and was organically grown by Tasha Guatney of Akwesasne.

First time growing a softneck variety of garlic…these grew into huge heads with large cloves.
My Goodness, all I can say at this point, is that EVERY one of the cloves have come up. I planted a side crop of winter wheat. I hope they do not compete, but rather complement each other.
