Rocamboles are classic heirloom varieties. Originating from Europe, these timeless varieties have been passed on for generations. Their versatile flavor is rich when raw & smooth when roasted. The Rocambole garlic family is a well-loved group of specialty varieties that grow best in the Northern and Mid-Regions of the US. Due to their nature, they can require a little extra care while growing. Rocamboles’ hearty flavor is one not to miss, but due to their shorter storage life, we prioritize eating our Rocamboles first!

Basic Rocambole 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.
