Organic Aomori (Asiatic)
$16.00
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.
Pyong Yang Garlic is an Asiatic-type hardneck variety from North Korea, originating north of Pyongyang. This unique strain is known for its striking appearance, unusual bulbil characteristics, and excellent culinary qualities. The bulbil capsule produces a distinctive 7–10 inch beak, adding to the fascinating diversity found within Asiatic garlic varieties.
Pyong Yang produces beautiful blushed and purple-striped bulbs with 6–8 cloves per bulb. The cloves are light brown with a rosy purple blush and elongated tips, creating an attractive presentation both in the garden and kitchen. When baked, this variety develops a light, pleasant nutty flavor, making it a versatile choice for cooking. Pyong Yang also offers good storage quality, extending its usefulness well beyond harvest.
NOTE: Maximum allowable order size for this variety is a 1/4 lb.
Few bulbs in the north reach 2+ inches, please note early bird orders will get our biggest bulbs first. We will not send any garlic that is smaller than 1.5 inches. When grown in southern climates, garlic will size up significantly.
