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.
Shandong Garlic is a Turban-type hardneck variety from China’s Shandong Province, shared through G. Czarnecki. This distinctive garlic represents the rich diversity of Asian garlic collections and is prized for its bold flavor and impressive heat.
Shandong maintains excellent garlic flavor when baked, developing a rich and savory character in the kitchen. Raw, it delivers an immediate burst of intense heat with a fast-acting, fiery bite. This variety is an excellent choice for garlic lovers who enjoy strong flavors and a memorable culinary experience.
The maximum allowable order size for this variety is 25 lbs.
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.
