The Northern Grower's Hardneck Variety Pack contains easy-to-grow varieties that should do well in Northern gardens (New York, New England, upper Midwest, etc). I'll include a selection of Rocamboles, Porcelains, Marbled Purple Stripes, and perhaps a type from the Wild, New, or Asiatic categories*. You may make up to (1) single specific variety request, but the rest will be picked by me.
The Large Pack (2.5 pounds total) will have 4-6 varieties
The Small Pack (1.5 pounds total) will have 3-4 varieties
That is *roughly* 0.4 to 0.5 pounds per variety, but will vary box to box.
Also- please note, if you are also ordering other individual garlic types, I will try to make sure to not include those types in sampler packs that you buy. I.e. if I see you already want a half pound of French Pink, and you order a Northern Grower's pack, I won't include any French Pink in the pack, finding something else you haven't gotten yet. This ensures maximum bang for your buck, and the chance to try as many types as possible.

*until you're a more experienced grower, Turban types cannot be sold as "easy growers, despite the fact that I successfully grow them now. I highly recommend them as great garlic, but will not include them in these hardneck packs (nor, obviously, Artichokes or Silverksins which make up the "softneck" world of garlic).
