• MUSIC- Our most vigorous grower, pioneered by Canadian, Al Music.   Good strong flavor.  This large garlic features 5-8 BIG cloves per head, and is an excellent roaster.  A favorite of the garlic lovers at our farmers' market, and some of KY's best chefs!

• CALIFORNIA EARLY-  This long-storing, sweet & nutty flavored garlic sports 10-20 fat cloves and is a favorite of ours pressed raw into a salad, or pickled!  

• LORZ ITALIAN- More than 15 cloves per bulb, but not many small interior cloves.  An artichoke type heirloom from Italy. Pungent. Good storage.

• BELARUS- A Purple Stripe variety. 7-9 cloves per bulb.  Quite mild flavor.

• BROWN TEMPEST- A glazed Purple Stripe strain, cloves are brown with a rose blush.  About 6 cloves per bulb, uniform in size.  Hot at first, mellowing to "nice and garlicky".
  

• GERMAN RED- A Rocambole with strong, spicy-hot flavor.  Usually more than 10 cloves per bulb. One of the first varieties to win our hearts many years ago.
  
• GERMAN WHITE-  Imported from Germany about 11 years ago by N.Y. grower Dave Piedmont. Another variety with very large cloves, a potent, but not hot flavor when eaten raw.  A consistently vigorous grower for us, although on the small side this year.
• KAZAKHSTAN- an early maturing variety, white skinned cloves, apporximately 7-8 per bulb.  Good strong flavor.
  

• KILLARNEY RED- A Rocambole from Idaho.  Better adapted to wet conditions.  Good strong flavor, easy to peel.

• ONTARIO PURPLE TRILLIUM- Moderate to strong heat.  Purple clove wrappers.  A Canadian breed.

• POLISH JENN- Milder than some Porcelains, Jenn still has good full flavor.  Expect 6-9 large, easy-to-peel cloves and good storage.  A favorite for braiding.
  

• PURPLE GLAZER- A Glazed Purple Stripe variety from the Republic of Georgia.  Everyone loves it for the beautiful color.  When grown in our area the flavor is mellow, not hot.  Good keeper.
  

• SIBERIAN- Actually a misnomer, as this Porcelain garlic is originally from Ukraine.  This strong, spicy Slavic treasure has 4-7 large cloves and is a good storage garlic.

• CHINESE HARDNECK- This unusual garlic is actually a bolting softneck....a softneck which puts up a scape!  We love it because it is the hands-down earliest good-sized bulbs we grow.  We started with 5 LB of this one 2 years ago, and it did so well that we've kept most of it for seed.  We are selling our smaller bulbs,  2" or less, again this year in order to double our seed garlic for next year. Pungent and delicious

• FRENCH RED- We tried this variety for the first time 2 years ago, and we like it!  Flattish bulbs contain approximately 10 nice size cloves. Strong flavor, meaty bulbs.  Very limited amount available.

• INCHELIUM-  Up to 20 fat cloves.  Gentle yet firm flavor.  Good storage.  Originally discovered on the Colville Indian Reservation in Washington State.  One of the first garlics we harvest each year.

• MACHASHI- A perennial favorite of ours for its wonderful complex flavor.  (It's also the name of our kitty!)  Good storage qualities, and a dozen or more cloves per bulb.  Originally from Russian Georgia.  Smallish this year.

• OREGON BLUE- An heirloom Artichoke variety from the North West.  Nice hot flavor, good storage.

• POLISH WHITE-  Also known as N.Y. White.  We've grown this one for a long time!  Our stongest flavored softneck.  Average 10-12 large cloves per head.  Good storage.  Try it roasted!

• SILVER WHITE- A softneck variety containing 8-10 cloves per bulb.  Good keeper, good braider.
