Silverskins
They are the last garlics to mature each season and they store the longest – 10+ months. There is a great range of tastes, pungency and onset of pungency, clove color, leaf color and size as well as time of maturity. They make a good addition if you like to spread out your Garlic harvest. Silverskin bulbs are smaller than those of Artichokes, but they have a large number of cloves per bulb, easily 10 plus. The cloves are arrayed in multiple layers. many of the inner cloves are often tall, slender, and small. The outer cloves are relatively large, flattened on the interior side, and tallish, with rounded corners and a graceful curvature that helps form the teardrop shape of the bulb. The outer cloves may be quite thin and wide in some cultivars. The bulb wrappers are white but may have yellow or tan veining. Clove skins range from white to tan, prominently pink-blushed, or even reddish purplish. Silverskins are popular with supermarkets because of their long shelf life. The flavours of Silverskins are typically hot and aggressive. If you like your garlic strong, this is the Garlic for you! No other garlics braid better than Silverskins.
Western Rose - A popular Italian softneck garlic that has nice white skin producing creamy white cloves in purple wrappers. It delivers a mild to moderate flavor and is a great variety for braiding. In very cold climates, some plants may bolt or form scapes in the stem. However, these generally do not need to be removed for good bulb size. Bulbs have a good consistent size and have 10 to 14 cloves. Requires good fertility (particularly high Nitrogen) to size up properly. Should be harvested early once the first leaf or two have started to brown. Stores for up to a year.
