Seed Garlic - Printanor - Organically Grown
$5.75
Printanor is a classic French softneck garlic valued for its reliability, generous bulb size, and excellent storage life. The bulbs are smooth and white with a tidy, well filled shape, containing numerous plump cloves arranged in layers. The flavour is balanced and versatile, full enough to stand out in cooking but smooth and rounded rather than overly hot.
Selected in France for strong production and adaptability, Printanor has become widely grown in mild climates where it consistently forms large bulbs and cures well for long storage. As a softneck garlic it does not produce a flower stalk, directing its energy into bulb development and producing dependable yields.
