rosy garlic Explanation: Allium roseum L. BOSNIAN : Divlji luk, Pasji luk. CROATIAN : Lukovać. ENGLISH : Rosy garlic. FRENCH : Ail rose, Ail rosé . GERMAN : Rosenlauch, Rosiger Knoblauch. ITALIAN : Aglio roseo. POLISH : Czosnek różowy. RUSSIAN : Лук розовый Luk rosovyi. SERBIAN : Divlji luk. SLOVENIAN : Rožnati luk. SPANISH : Ajo rosado. Photograph of flower close-up on Wikipedia. Photographs at "SOPHY" Growing Garlic by Erica Renaud and Scott Vlaun Cleaned garlic.The ancient Romans Juvenal, the poet, and Pliny, the naturalist and writer, mockingly report that in Egypt, garlic and onion were esteemed as gods. In fact, the Egyptians took their oaths upon them. Clay models of garlic bulbs found in Egypt date to 3000 B.C., and actual bulbs, dating to 1500 B.C., were found in the tomb of Tutankhamen. Garlic has since been revered by countless cultures for its medicinal and culinary powers. The Latin name for garlic means "cultivated onion," while the common name is derived from the Anglo-Saxon garleac, or "spear-leek." Garlic plants are easy to grow and reach in excess of 3 feet tall when flowering. The leaves are flat, grasslike, and very pointed. Hardneck garlic forms many small white flowers in a round cluster in early summer. Miniature bulbs, called bulbils, may form in the flower head. The underground bulbs contain four to twenty cloves encompassed in a paperlike covering—one layer for each leaf on the plant. All domesticated garlic fall into two distinct sub-species. 1. Hardneck (Allium sativum var. ophioscorodon): Hardneck varieties are further classified into Purple Stripe, Porcelain, and Rocambole types. They send up a central stalk, called a scape, which, if left to mature, is topped with a flowering seed cap. They typically have large, easy-peeling cloves, and a rich, aromatic flavor that is not too spicy. They often develop more colorful bulbs and offer a wider range of flavors than softneck varieties. They are preferred for northern climates and can generally be stored for three to six months. 2. Softneck (Allium sativum var. sativum): Also called braiding garlic, softneck garlics are divided into Silverskin, Artichoke, and Turban types. They usually do not produce a flower spike, are easier to grow, more productive, and more adaptable to a wider range of climates than the hardneck type. They generally have a spicier flavor and mature faster. Typically, these garlics are grown in southern California and near the Gulf of Mexico where winters are moderate. They can be stored for up to a year or more under proper conditions, with the Silverskin types being the best keepers. There are hundreds of garlic varieties.

early pink garlic Explanation: I think I'd just put this - it's Allium sativum (garlic) and there are lots of different types, some with names (as you can see in the catalogue link below), but this seems like a general term http://www.simpsonsseeds.co.uk/prods.asp?mode=cats -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2006-12-08 11:52:59 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- ariedades botánicas Dos grupos varietales fundamentales, que incluyen distintos cultivares, los blancos son rústicos, tardíos, se conservan mejor para su consumo en seco y su productividad es mejor. Los rosados se consumen más precozmente. - Ajos blancos (ajo blanco común, ajo canario, fino de Chinchón, etc.) - Ajos rosados (ajo morado de Las Pedroñeras, rosa temprano, rojo de Provenza, etc.) Ecología del cultivo http://www.agroprofesional.com/informe.php?id=1302&comu=&zti... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2006-12-08 11:56:06 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- and not a type of rocambole |
