Overview

Romanian Red garlic is celebrated for its bold, spicy flavor with a rich, garlicky aroma. This makes it an excellent choice for dishes that require a strong garlic presence, such as roasted meats, soups, and stews. The cloves are easy to peel, and the bulbs are densely packed, ensuring a rich yield. Its intense bite mellows slightly when cooked, adding a complex depth to your dishes. Additionally, Romanian Red is known for its excellent storage life, typically lasting up to eight months under proper conditions.

Characteristics

  • Type: Hardneck
  • Size: Medium to large bulbs with 6-12 plump cloves each
  • Color: Reddish-brown wrappers with purple streaks
  • Storage Time: Up to 8 months

Growing Tips

  • Planting: Best planted in the fall, about 4-6 weeks before the first hard frost. Space cloves 6-8 inches apart in well-drained, fertile soil.
  • Sunlight: Requires full sun for optimal growth.
  • Watering & Care: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Mulching can help retain moisture and suppress weeds. Garlic does not do well with heavy weed competition so keep garlic beds well weeded.
  • Fertilization: Apply a balanced fertilizer at planting and again in early spring for best results. Garlic is a heavy feeder and you wont get good big garlic heads if you dont fertilize heavily. 

Harvesting Tips

  • Timing: Harvest in mid-summer when the lower leaves turn brown, but the upper leaves are still green. Best to harvest after a dry spell and/or when it is close to ready and before a big rain to avoid excessive molding.
  • Process: Carefully dig up the bulbs with a garden fork, ensuring not to damage them directly. Cure in a dry, well-ventilated area for 3-4 weeks.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dark place with good air circulation to ensure maximum shelf life.
