Vekak Czech Garlic
This is a Glazed Purple Stripe type.
Last year this was a much more colorful garlic. Sometimes I come across cloves with colors so intense, they remind me of the stained glass in the cathedral in Prague. Purple/Red are the main colors, but sometimes hues of yellow and other colors emerge. The taste of this garlic is very good.
Last year was the first year growing this garlic, and for a while I didn’t think it was going to make it. The plants were weak, and the few resulting bulbs almost weren’t enough for replanting. This year it’s really taken off, and I think it’s long term prognosis is very good. Assuming it keeps going in my garden, I think this will turn into a very high quality garlic.
