Garlic Scapes are the seed head that shoots up from the center of the garlic near the end of its growing cycle. In some varieties of Hard neck Garlic it produces a seed head. In Elephant Garlic it is a false seed head that just flowers and very seldom if at all produces seeds. We cut them a few days after they emerge and sell them as a delicacy for Gourmet cooks. They only grow on Hard neck Garlic types, and Elephant Garlic. The window to cut these is very small before they go "woody" so we only have them available for 3-4 weeks each year.

Our Soft Neck Garlic available for sale this year is Inchillium Red. Soft Neck Garlic has a longer keeping quality than most Hardneck Garlic. It has many papery wrappers around its cloves. These help to insulate it from moisture loss, and keep it fresh longer. Soft Neck garlics can store 9-12 months with proper storage methods. They do not have a hard center stem and are great for braiding. There are many cloves in a Soft Neck Garlic. The larger ones are in the outside row, and the inner rows have smaller cloves.

German Extra Hardy Gourmet Garlic is just that, extra hardy. A Hardneck Porcelain variety that withstands cold winters with ease. Its long roots keep the cloves from heaving up in a freeze. German Extra Hardy has 4-6 large cloves in an impressively large head for great market appeal . It has a rich, garlicky flavor that is strong and robust and hold up well in cooking. The cloves are large and easy to peel. Product Link - https://lillibeangreen.com/products/german-extra-hardy-gourmet-garlic
