Allium sativum – ‘Striped Italian Purple’
$19.99
A very versatile vegetable, excellent for flavouring many types of dishes. Can be used raw or cooked.
Heavily purple-striped or blotched skins, red when first harvested. Skins are fragile and will split and flake easily. Usually whiten during storage.
Plant in Autumn, harvest in late very late Spring/Summer
Separate cloves and plant individually approximately 8-10 cm apart, pointy end up to produce an abundant crop (rows 60cm apart). Cease watering a few weeks prior to harvest to ensure plants become dry and firm before lifting. Once foliage has died back, lift and store in a cool, dry environment.
Grown on a small family run farms located just outside of Bridgetown – Blackwood Valley Garlic
