Inchelium Red
Softneck Artichoke Garlic
- Sustainably Grown
Allium sativumDid someone say braiding garlic? This softneck variety usually forms two rings of cloves, 2–3 inner cloves and 6–7 outer cloves, but can make a very large bulb with 4–5 rings. Inner cloves are not as tiny as in supermarket garlics. White paper with reddish-purple markings. Very good flavor, but not intense; excellent raw. Decent keeper, with good yields and good bolt resistance. Originates from Inchelium (in-chee-lee-um), Washington, near the Canadian border. 50–60 cloves per pound.

Additional Information
Artichoke Garlic, softneck type
Produces a bulb with two or more rings of cloves and a soft, braidable stem. 50–60 cloves per pound.
Seed Garlic
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. 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.
