(Allium sativum)  Porcelain type. This exceptionally cold hardy hardneck type is appreciated for its pungent, gourmet flavor.

This top choice culinary variety is easy to peel, and also has a good shelf life of up to 6 months when stored properly. Averages 4-7 cloves per head, and makes delicious scapes.

Growing Guide

When to Grow

Plant German Extra Hardy garlic in the fall, about six weeks before the first hard freeze. This timing allows the garlic to form roots before the ground freezes. This is a hardneck porcelain type that needs a cold period to form cloves, so spring planting, especially in mild-winter regions, often yields a single undivided round rather than a clove-filled head. The bulbs typically mature in mid-summer, around July or August.

What gardeners are saying

  • Huge bulbs: Palm-sized heads with big, fat cloves.

  • Survives brutal winters: Came through deep snow and minus 40 degrees.

  • Plant and forget: Near 100 percent sprouting; easy for first-time growers.

  • Great scapes too: Strong, fragrant flavor, and the scapes are a bonus.

  • Long season: Plant in fall, harvest in July; a wait for new growers.
