Garlic, Transylvania

This great garlic originated in a small village in the heart of the Transylvanian Mountains and was discovered in a Romanian Farmers Market in the mid-1990s. Stores well due to the tight, coarse tunics around its cloves. Harvest fall planted garlic the following season, late spring or early summer, about 240 days from planting. Harvest spring planted garlic the same season, about 90 days from planting. Averages 10 cloves per bulb. Softneck variety.
