Russian Red
Last updated on Jul 15, 2024 by Ben Ronniger
Rocambole garlics have brownish-purplish bulb wrappers and easy to peel brownish clove covers and so does Killarney Red.
Rocamboles are valued for being early harvesting full flavored garlics that you can enjoy while waiting for the longer storing ones to mature and harvest. Russian Red's cloves are all of similar large size with no small cloves.
