Russian Red
Russian Red is a Marbled Purple Stripe known for its outstanding flavor and colorful bulb wrappers. It is a hardy garlic that produces year after year and an outstanding all-around garlic with a mild heat that is not overpowering.
Large bulbs with 6-8 large cloves are a dream to work with. Russian Red has tighter wrappers than many hardneck varieties and, as a result, stores very well! A beautiful, large, easy to work with hardneck with the flavor that is expected out of a hard-neck variety.
Russian Red garlic was tested and brought legally into the Idaho quarantine area by Sundries Farm in 2022.
