Add a bold and robust flavor to your garden with German Red Garlic – a beloved heirloom variety known for its strong, full-bodied flavor and excellent storage qualities. A popular rocambole type, German Red Garlic has been one of the first hardneck garlic varieties to gain widespread popularity due to its versatility in the kitchen and its ability to store well for months. With its white wrappers and slight pinkish-red tinge, this garlic is as beautiful as it is flavorful. Whether you’re planting for personal use or sharing with friends and family, German Red Garlic is a must-have for any garden.

Why Choose German Red Garlic?

  • Generous Clove Yield: Each bulb contains 6 to 8 cloves, providing a generous amount of garlic for cooking and preserving.
  • Rocambole Type: As a rocambole garlic, German Red has the distinctive characteristic of easily peeling cloves, making it more convenient to use in the kitchen.
  • Robust Flavor: German Red Garlic is renowned for its strong, full-bodied flavor that’s perfect for a variety of dishes. Its flavor deepens and becomes even more intense after being stored for a while, making it ideal for those who love bold garlic tastes.
  • Impressive Size: Bulbs are 2 inches in diameter or larger, with flattened bulbs and white wrappers that feature a slight pinkish-red tinge, making them a beautiful addition to any garden.
  • Excellent Keeper: Known for its long shelf life, German Red Garlic can be stored for months, ensuring that you always have access to fresh garlic. It lasts 6 to 9 months when stored properly.
  • Non-GMO & Heirloom: Grow a reliable, traditional garlic variety that’s non-GMO and heirloom, ensuring top-quality garlic for your garden and kitchen.

Planting and Growing Tips:

  1. Planting Time: German Red Garlic thrives when planted in the fall, before the first frost. The cold period helps the cloves develop strong bulbs over the winter, and they’ll be ready to harvest in late spring or early summer.
  2. Soil Requirements: Garlic prefers well-drained, loose, fertile soil with a slightly acidic pH (around 6.0 to 7.0). Adding compost or organic matter will provide the nutrients needed for healthy growth.
  3. Spacing: Space garlic cloves about 4 to 6 inches apart, planting them 2 inches deep with the pointed end facing up. Space rows about 12 inches apart to give the garlic plenty of room to grow.
  4. Watering: Regular watering is essential, but be cautious not to overwater. Garlic doesn’t like soggy soil, so make sure the soil is well-draining. Reduce watering as the plants begin to mature.
  5. Harvesting: German Red Garlic is ready to harvest when the leaves begin to yellow and die back, typically around 90 to 110 days after planting. Carefully dig up the bulbs, brush off the soil, and allow them to cure in a dry, cool area for a few weeks.

Uses for German Red Garlic:

  • Cooking: The strong flavor of German Red Garlic makes it a perfect addition to a variety of dishes, from sauces and soups to meats and roasted vegetables.
  • Roasting: Roasting German Red Garlic brings out its rich, mellow sweetness. Simply roast the whole bulb and spread the soft, roasted cloves on bread, potatoes, or meat.
  • Garlic Butter: Combine roasted or fresh minced German Red Garlic with butter to make a savory garlic butter, perfect for spreading on fresh bread, steaks, or roasted veggies.
  • Pickling: Its robust flavor makes German Red Garlic a great option for pickling. Use it to add a tangy garlic kick to your favorite pickled vegetables.
  • Garlic Paste: You can easily make garlic paste from German Red Garlic by blending roasted or raw cloves with olive oil. Use it as a base for sauces or dressings.
