Garlic - (Hard Neck) German, Red

🛒 View cart

Description

Quick Overview

• Grows well in most any climate. 
Hard neck
• Strong flavor

Details

This large bright purple bulb contains 8-12, extra easy-to-peel, round, light brown cloves with some purple at the base. Flavor is strong, hot, and spicy. Keeps moderately well when properly cured and stored. Can be grown in mild climates; However, develops better quality and size where winters are cold. Color will become brighter if it is stressed by too much water.


How to Plant Garlic

Garlic can be planted in the spring as soon as the ground can be worked, but fall planting is recommended. Bulbs will grow bigger and more flavorful when you plant them in the fall.  Plant 6 to 8 weeks before your first hard frost.  In southern areas, February or March can be a better time to plant.

Key Planting Info:

  • Break apart cloves from bulb but keep the papery husk on each individual clove.
  • Ensure soil is well-drained with plenty of organic matter. Plant in Full Sun.
  • Plant 4 inches apart & 2 inches deep, in their upright position (the wide end down and pointed end facing up).
  • Come springtime, shoots will begin to emerge.

    OUR PLEDGE TO YOU

    Agriculture and seeds provide the basis upon which our lives depend. We must protect this foundation as a safe and genetically stable source for future generations.

    For the benefit of all farmers, gardeners and consumers who want an alternative. We pledge to you that we do not knowingly buy or sell genetically engineered seeds or plants.  The mechanical transfer of genetic material outside of natural reproductive methods and between genera, families or kingdoms, poses great biological risks as well as economic, political, and cultural threats.

    We wish to support agricultural progress that leads to healthier soils, genetically diverse agricultural ecosystems and ultimately healthy people and communities.

    We do not buy - OR - grow any seed from large corporations that make Genetically Engineered seeds.  We don't touch that stuff and we never will.

    The seeds we offer aren't like varieties you'd typically find at a garden center. 

    Every variety we offer is 100% OP (open-pollinated).  Open-pollination means that you can safely save the seed after harvest and preserve a collection of heirloom seed for many generations to come.

    To make it perfectly clear ... Our seeds do not contain any exogenously inserted embryogenesis deactivator genes caused by human intervention.

        I received these (and four other varieties) in less than a week, to Illinois. The cloves are large and in charge! Just got them planted today, three cloves in five fabric pots. We've been unseasonably warm here in 6b so I refrigerated them for over a week before planting, just so they didn't sprout before I was ready for it to happen. So far, so good!
