Another very exciting new variety for 2023!
This is what the supplier of my foundational seed stock (who literally grows HUNDREDS of garlic varieties) has to say about it: "Our favorite porcelain variety at Filaree Farm. Produces large and very dense bulbs. Brought to British Columbia from Romania. Cloves streaked and lined on buff brown background. Very good storage. Usually 4 to 5 cloves per bulb. Hot and pungent with a healthy, long lasting bite. An excellent alternative to Music."
A note on garlic for medicinal purposes: As you may well know, garlic is chock-full of medicinal and healing properties. However, you might not know that the garlic family called porcelains (Romanian Red is in this family) have been found to contain the highest amount of allicin which is what gives garlic its medicinal properties. Keep in mind that allicin oxidizes within 15 minutes of cutting open a clove, so you need to work fast to get the strongest medicinal properties.
***As I'm not a medical professional, please do your own research regarding garlic and its reported healing properties.***
