One of my very favorite garlics and probably my favorite hard neck. Grows well, dries well and stores pretty good. Beautiful and easy to sell at market. Fuss free. Lots of taste |

Tastes nice and hot. Small head size and seemed to struggle while Italian Easy Peel and German Porcelain varieties in same patch thrived. Storage qualities also inferior. |
