Dutch PenBrun (Marbled Purple Stripe) Seed Bulb

Let me count the ways …. This is one of my larger bulbing Marbled Purple Stripes – almost filling your palm with 7 HUGE cloves.  Stronger and richer, a little less sweet than Russian Fioletevy and with good heat strength – so a strong all-rounder for use during Summer and Winter, lovely rich raw flavour, sautees beautifully and roasts sublime.  Everyone loves it because it has 5-7 HUGE cloves that are really easy to peel.
