Persian Star originates back to Uzbekistan. This heirloom variety is a garden favorite with its rich sweet flavor that holds through the cooking process. The Large bulbs produce 9-12 cloves of mild garlic that are easy to peel out of their papery wrapper. The purple stripping on them starts at the root of the bulb and spreads its way up through the cloves. This hardneck variety is great for all gardens! It can be grown in both southern and northern states, and when cultivated well, you will be blessed with a large harvest!
