We
plan to offer again in 2009 10 bulb sample packs of two types (our
choice) for $13.50 and $6.00 Priority Mail Shipping, TOTAL $19.50 With a hardneck and
a softneck variety included above.
The hardneck varieties grow "scapes", garlic tops that must be
cut in late June so the bulbs will grow to their full size. These tops are excellent
in stir fry, a potato salad, with eggs or anyway you would use a scallion. They
can also be ground up to make a pesto and store well in a refrigerated jar with
olive oil.
We ship orders to customers living in the mainland
USA, Priority Mail.
