Substitutions

For much of the year, we are selling seed that is still in the ground. You can pre-order based on our conservative harvest estimates. If the actual harvest is less than our estimates, we can usually find a similar strain to substitute within the same varietal group, so please check YES to “May We Substitute?. If you select NO we will send a refund for any sold-out strains. An expert always considers your location, similar traits in strain, and any other strains already on your order to avoid duplicates. You are also welcome to add any notes if you have specific requests for possible substitutions, or you can request that we contact you if substitutions are necessary.

Description

Lithuanian Purple Garlic is a Marbled Purple Stripe-type hardneck variety with a beautiful family history rooted in rural Lithuania. This treasured strain was grown for generations before making its way to us through a customer who shared it from her grandmother, Danute.

Lithuanian Purple produces stunning bulbs with deep purple coloration and typically around 6 large cloves per bulb. Its combination of rich heritage, beautiful appearance, and classic Marbled Purple Stripe characteristics makes it a special addition for gardeners who appreciate preserving traditional garlic varieties.
