I have grown this variety from the same seedstock since 1988. It is about 60% of my garlic crop. Large bulbs, nice white wrapper, great taste - not too hot, but still very flavorful. Planted it as late as Dec 15 and several winters where nighttime temperatures went down to -20°F for several days without any effect in size, taste, or quality. Highly recommend this garlic variety. |
