Originating from Asia, Asiatic Garlic can vary significantly from variety to variety in appearance, color, shape & even clove count. Asiatic varieties tend to mature a little earlier than other families like Porcelains & Purple Stripes. Their flavor profile leans more on the hot side when eaten raw & just a bit sweeter when cooked. Asiatics are specialty heirloom varieties that are often more exclusive and difficult to find.

Basic Asiatic Garlic Growing Information

• Garlic needs full sun so plan your garden accordingly.
• Garlic prefers rich composted & well-drained soil. It is a heavy feeder so fertilize properly with a well-balanced fertilizer. See our Fertilization Soak page to see how we do it!
• Weed regularly as garlic does not compete well with weeds. Mulch is recommended for protecting the cloves through winter, keeping the soil moisture level consistent and weeds at bay.
