Hardneck Porcelain Garlic

This hardneck type produces 3–6 very large cloves with tight porcelain-white skins. Excellent storage. Huge cloves are wonderful in the kitchen and perfect for pesto-making or baking whole.

Scapes form arches, curls and loose coils, and develop hundreds of tiny grain-sized bulbils. Slower propagation than other hardnecks. 20–35 cloves per pound. Zone 3–8

The bulb size, the skin color, the flavor, and the size and number of cloves are partly determined by genetics, and partly by soil and weather. We base our variety descriptions on reports from farmers, our garlic suppliers and our own experiences; your harvests may differ slightly.

Our size standard for a seed garlic bulb is 2" diameter, but we reserve the right to ship smaller garlic in difficult crop years. Fedco requires every lot of garlic to test negative for both garlic bloat nematode and white rot.

All our garlic is hardy Zones 3-8. See the USDA Hardiness Zone map for more information.
