Russian Red is harvested in mid-summer, and its bulbs can be stored for up to six months under proper conditions. Gardeners appreciate its vigorous growth and reliable yields, making it a favorite among garlic enthusiasts. This garlic variety adds a bold, flavorful punch to any dish.

Storage Life: 6-8 months
I was very pleasantly surprised when I got my Russian red garlic seed. The bulbs were huge and appeared to be fresh and without "bad" cloves. Just planted them a week ago with addition of compost and Trifecta+ in zone 6. Looking forward to a good crop next July.
Will be planting in zone 5b next week. Garlic looks great.
Came in looking great, ready to plant.
These bulbs were HUGE! The cloves are double the size of other varieties! Cant wait for next summer.
I live in the PNW and Russian Red Garlic thrives here. I typically have a 100% success rate. I tried about 8 other varieties only to keep going back to Russian Red as my hands down favorite. I want the largest most flavorful cloves that I can produce because I find it tedious and time consuming pealing garlic cloves. All my relatives line up to get some Russian Red Garlic at harvest time. I grew about 300 Russian Red in 2024. You can't beat it for a good immune boost.
