Purple Stripe Garlic
The closest to the wild garlic ancestors, this hardneck variety hails from the harsh climate of central Asia. Genetic research shows the Purple Stripe group is the basis of all other types.
Tightly wrapped cloves with long tips, 6–14 per bulb. The skins of both bulbs and cloves are striped in purple. Cloves usually form a single layer around the hard center stalk, though very large bulbs may have inner cloves.
Scapes coil vigorously; small bulbils. 50–60 cloves per pound.
