German White (Extra Hardy) is in the porcelain group of hardneck garlic seed types with white skin and a little purple striping. It has four to six cloves per big garlic seed bulb, medium maturity and good storage life. It has a strong, pungent flavor yet not too hot. Yield will generally be about 4-5 times the weight planted depending on soil, weed control and care.

German White or German Extra Hardy

     Currently the variety I have is German White also called German Extra Hardy. This variety originated in the northern Germanic region of Europe. Thus it is a good variety for the upper USA and southern Canada areas. Over the years I grew several varieties from different garlic seed suppliers. I settled on German White because of the big garlic seed size and multi use flavor profile.

     I also grow Pskem and Music garlic however they are in the propagating stage to replenish inventory. That will take 1-2 years.

     You may see and buy my German White hardneck garlic seed at $25 per pound plus flat $5 shipping on my Etsy site here.  I use Etsy to sell instead of my website because you get Etsy's Buyer Protection and I feel the order is easier to manage on Etsy.
