Product Description

Fresh garlic from China, by color and size

We supply fresh garlic in four types: normal white, pure white, red and purple. Bulbs are sized from 4.0 cm to 6.0 cm in 0.5 cm steps.

The crop is harvested in May. New-season fresh garlic is shipped from early June to September, and cold-store garlic from October to the following May, so buyers can plan supply through most of the year.
