Organic Persian Star Garlic (lb)

Organic Persian Star is a showpiece garlic, named for the star-like pattern formed by its pointed cloves. Purple-striped wrappers, a fascinating collecting story and a crop of tender scapes make it an especially charming choice for gardeners who love beautiful harvests.

The flavor is full but balanced, with a pleasant spicy lift when raw and a sweeter finish after cooking. Use it in hummus, pesto and dressings, or roast the cloves for soups, grains and vegetables.

Plant in fall in a sunny site with meaningful winter chill. Harvest the scapes first, then dig around mid-summer and handle the decorative wrappers gently while curing.
