About German White Extra Hardy Certified Organic Garlic

German White Extra Hardy Garlic, also known as Music Garlic, is a renowned hardneck variety celebrated for its robust, gourmet flavor. This porcelain type garlic, now organically grown, features creamy white outer paper with purple-streaked inner wrappers around each clove. The large, easy-to-peel bulbs contain 4-7 cloves each, making it a favorite among home chefs for its rich, moderately spicy taste. German White Extra Hardy is highly valued for its high allicin content, especially when freshly crushed, adding both flavor and potential health benefits to your dishes.

How to Grow German White Extra Hardy Garlic

German White Extra Hardy Garlic is ideal for cold climates and should be planted in the fall for the best results. Plant the cloves in well-drained soil in a sunny location, about 2 inches deep with the tip pointing up. This variety typically matures in approximately 225-240 days, providing a bountiful harvest by mid-summer. The garlic also produces scapes, which are tender, flavorful stalks that can be harvested in late spring and used in various culinary applications.

Our garlic is USDA certified organic, grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. This ensures healthier, sustainable crops, supports biodiversity, and enhances soil health, providing you with the highest quality produce for your garden and kitchen.

A half-pound set of garlic contains approximately 3-4 bulbs. Each bulb contains several cloves for planting. Actual quantity may vary depending on bulb size.
