Description
Also known as German White, this robust, hardneck variety came to North America with German Mennonite immigrants over a hundred years ago. It is known for its hardiness, huge bulb size and performs extremely well in cold climates and a wide range of soil conditions.
German Porcelain grows an impressive plant with dark green leaves that can produce massive bulbs with huge cloves. It is a very popular variety in the colder regions of North America.
The flavour is sweet and consistent with the Porcelain family. Ranges in colour from white to slightly purple, depending on the soil and growing conditions. Bulbs are uniform with large cloves (average 5 to 6 cloves/bulb) and can be stored for up to 6 months.
Garlic is a heavy feeder. For best results, apply a well-balanced organic fertilizer at planting and in spring. Planting a green manure cover crop the season before growing garlic is also recommended.
Highest Quality Standards
Our premium garlic is carefully examined throughout the season, from planting to harvest. Cloves, plants, and bulbs are all individually inspected to maintain the highest quality seed stock available! See how we Manage Garlic Diseases & Pests.
