Adds spicy flavour to your favourite dishes.
If you've ever thought of growing your own garlic, now is the time to give it a try. Purple-striped Russian Red Garlic is a cold-hardy rocambole type that is the perfect choice for Canadian gardens. Plus, the robust flavour imparted by this rather hot bulb means you only need one or two cloves in your favourite recipes to get that rich punch of aromatic zing garlic is known for. Harvested in early to midsummer and storable through mid winter. Yield: 6-8 large cloves per bulb.
