Garlic, like shallots and onions, is a member of the allium family and is a species within the allium genus. Garlic is one of the most popular vegetables used to season in cooking. Studies have shown there are many benefits to adding garlic to your dishes. It is said to lower blood pressure, reduce inflammation, help lower cholesterol, support immune function and may reduce blood clotting. Garlic is easy to grow and is a great addition to your edible garden. Silver skin garlic, also known as 'softneck garlic', is a type of garlic known for its papery white outer skin that resembles silver or white parchment paper. It is one of the most widely cultivated varieties. Silver skin garlic typically produces bulbs with many cloves in varying sizes within the same bulb. Its flavor is more mild than other garlic varieties, being slightly sweet and less spicy than hardneck varieties. Silver skin garlic is easy to peel. It has a long shelf life and stores well. It is adaptable to many gardens and climates throughout the world, making it a staple choice for commercial growers. The garlic bulbs we ship are usually on average between 1-1.5" in diameter, which by industry standards weigh approximately 12-16 bulbs per pound.
