About Garlic Bulb (Softneck) - Nootka Rose

Allium sativum

Seed Type Bulb
Plant Type Softneck

Beloved as a silverskin softneck heirloom prized for its bold flavor and exceptional storage life, Nootka Rose Garlic often stores for 9 to 12 months, bringing fresh garlic to the winter table. Medium to large bulbs are wrapped in clean white skins and open to reveal beautiful pink, mahogany-streaked cloves that deliver a rich, robust garlic taste that is stronger than most softnecks. Adaptable to both northern and southern climates, Nootka Rose is a handsome, late-season variety that is tolerant of summer heat.
