Garlic ‘Morado’ is a Spanish hardneck variety producing large, deep red cloves with an intense aroma and a rich, spicy taste. Hardneck garlic performs particularly well in cooler conditions, making it a good choice for autumn planting in the UK.
Its bold, full flavour is ideal when you really want the garlic to come through in your cooking. The substantial cloves are also easy to peel and prepare, whether you're roasting them whole or adding them to savoury dishes.
As a hardneck variety, ‘Morado’ produces an edible curling flower stem known as a scape, giving you an extra crop to enjoy before the bulbs themselves are ready to lift in summer.
