Interested in growing garlic but can't settle on which variety?  We'd love to introduce you into the wide world of garlic diversity with our garlic samplers.  We offer a few different options: 1/2 pound or 1/4 pound each of 4 varieties of garlic for which we have limited quantities. Please note the garlic varieties included may change depending on availability.  Each type represents a different facet of the garlic genome: Inchelium Red - Inchelium is an artichoke softneck variety. This mild-flavored garlic is great baked. Pretty and productive a softneck originally cultivated by the Colville Confederated Tribes in Washington. As with most soft necks Inchelium stores very well for 6–9 months. Pretty purple coloring over white bulb wrappers conceal 12-15 large plump cloves. Grows to 3 1/ 2"! Inchelium grows very well in our bioregion and was adapted as Applegate Red - a major part of the Siskiyou Purple lineage. Jupiter - Jupiter is a marbled variety. Plants have tall, wide curvaceous leaves and stout scapes that are ideal for grilling. Often dappled with dark purple, bulbs can get quite large and contain 5-7 squat tan to brown cloves with thick skins that are relatively easy to peel. Stores fairly well and tends to be quite pungent. Jupiter garlic is named for the largest planet in our solar system, indeed more than twice the size as all other planets combined. While bulb isn’t that large, it does size up considerably! If the the plants are impressive for their size, the voluminous root mass at harvest is equally so. Jupiter, the garlic, is dense and sulfurous. Thank you to Garlicana for this description!  Chinese Pink - Turban variety. Somewhere between softneck and hardneck garlic. Some people refer to Turban as a bolting softneck. It typically grows scapes like a hardneck type does, however it does not have the tough inner core that varieties like our German White. Amazingly this variety matures a full 4-6 weeks ahead of our other garlics. This is a welcome harvest to compliment the palette of fresh food available that time of year. Its flavor is mild and smooth and mellow enough to use in any dish.  Bulb wrappers are white and conceal pink clove wrappers. Only available in the Sampler.  Mt St Helens - A softneck silverskin large family heirloom. Mt St Helens in bred in Washington State and has large cloves, mild flavor and is an excellent keeper. Only available in the Sampler.  We also have the Hardneck Garlic Sampler available for extra variety, click the link to check it out! 1/4 Pound of Each (1 pound total) 1/2 pound of each (2 pounds total) * All varieties are Organically Grown.

Turban, Hardneck Certified Organic This is a very pretty hardneck Turban type with flattened bulbs with purple striping from Basque Country in the in the autonomous province of Navarre (Nafarroa), Northern Spain. It has a quick heat when eaten raw, fading into an earthy finish. In the Basque language garlic is “baratxuri”. We originally obtained this variety via our local garlic wizard, Avram Drucker of Garlicana. Here in Southern Oregon, where they are some of the first to emerge and earliest to mature, the scapes seldom have time to coil before the plants are ready to harvest meaning that the lack of fiber in the leaves, makes them are ideal for garlic greens pesto and well suited for early greens production.  In addition to the northern latitudes, Basque, grows well in warmer climates and more southern latitudes. Turban garlics are highly adaptable to different climates having been found from tropical Southeast Asia to arid Central Asia, to the Pyrenees and surrounding lowlands.  Very easy to peel. Stores for near 7 months.  SORRY BUT NO INTERNATIONAL ORDERS ON GARLIC * Free Shipping does not apply to Garlic Orders * Remember to check out our Garlic Growing tips in order to make the most of your growing opportunity: https://www.siskiyouseeds.com/blogs/news/garlic-planting-tips...

Porcelain, Hardneck Certified Organic German White is a wonderful type that we have grown for nearly 20 years here. This is our favorite garlic on the farm here on account of its large cloves that peel easily. Bulbs are satin white over pink clove wrappers.  Most bulbs will have only 4-6 cloves, saving time in the kitchen.  Flavor is rich and bold with just the right amount of spiciness. Stores fairly well for a hardneck, lasting until March or April in simple cool storage. Another bonus of this variety is that it produces scapes (see photo), which are false flower stalks that can be used as a sort of green garlic (think bunching onions) in April and May.  It is best to break these scapes off as it helps make for larger bulbs instead of the plant putting its energy into making these false flowers that produce small bubils. Although this variety is a bit more difficult to grow than softneck varieties in so far as it is more sensitive to weed pressure and water inconsistency, it is such a joy to use in the kitchen that it's worth the extra effort.  It is capable of growing to 3.5" in diameter with 5-8 large cloves per bulb. Among the best for roasting!  Flavor: Pleasant strong & sweet flavor with some heat that intensifies after some storage. Storage ability: Will easily keep until March or April  in a cool dark garage or shed. Cloves per bulb: 5-8 Cloves per pound: 35 - or about 4 heads/pound. Planting: One pound plants 20 row feet at one clove every 6".
