Generally does best in USDA Zones 3-7. Believed by many to be the finest tasting garlics of all. The flavors are sweet with a rich, deep complex taste and moderately hot raw. The aroma of a freshly cut clove is very rich. Short storing, usually done near the beginning of winter but some may be good longer. The cloves peel exceptionally easy because they are somewhat loose which then is the reason they don't store as long as some others. Medium size cloves grow in a single ring with 6-8 average. Plant height is usually around three feet and leaves are somewhat wider than other garlics and lighter in color. Grow well in northern and mid states and some will grow in the very hot states but not make huge heads. Produces bulbils similar in size to corn kernels. Most will be large enough to make a cloved head in one season and full sized heads in two.
