- [Standard Purple Stripe Group](https://garlicaustralia.asn.au/garlics/purple-stripe/) - Ancestors and antecedents of all other garlic cultivars. Genetically diverse, some produce seed. There are about a dozen named cultivars in the Standard Purple Stripe Group with around half a dozen grown in quantity commercially around the world. Whilst a few different Standard Purple Stripe cultivars have been brought into Australia in the past, Dunganski
- [Rocambole Group](https://garlicaustralia.asn.au/garlics/rocambole/) - Often seen as the 'Holy Grail' of garlics because of their complex flavours, Rocamboles are not well represented in Australia. Many cultivars that have Rocambole in their cultivar name are actually in the Creole or Turban Groups.hardneck strongly_bolting Deep, rich sweet flavour, hot but not sulphurous. Short to medium Tasmania and cooler regions of Victoria
- [Porcelain Group](https://garlicaustralia.asn.au/garlics/porcelain/) - Porcelain cultivars need really cold conditions to do well and in the USA are only found in the far north. They also do well in Canada. There are not many cultivars in the Porcelain Group in Australia, and those that are here would only thrive in Tasmania, or possibly mountainous regions of Victoria or Southern
- [Americky Maly](https://garlicaustralia.asn.au/garlics/marbled-purple-stripe/americky-maly/) - This cultivar was originally from North Moravia in the Czech Republic and was imported into Australia from the USA by the AGIA in 1994.

- [Marbled Purple Stripe Group](https://garlicaustralia.asn.au/garlics/marbled-purple-stripe/) - At one point Glazed Purple Stripe and Marbled Purple Stripe cultivars were included in the same Group as Standard Purple Stripes. It is now believed that the cultivars of these three groups have distinct differences and far from being sub-groups of Purple Stripe, they are actually as genetically different as all the other Groups. It
- [Glazed Purple Stripe Group](https://garlicaustralia.asn.au/garlics/glazed-purple-stripe/) - At one point Glazed Purple Stripe and Marbled Purple Stripe cultivars were included in the same Group as Purple Stripes. It is now believed that the cultivars of these three groups have distinct differences and far from being sub-groups of Purple Stripe, they are actually as genetically different as all the other Groups. It is
- [Xian](https://garlicaustralia.asn.au/garlics/turban/xian/) - Xian is believed to have come from Xi'an in the Shanxi Province, China. Whether the cultivar sold in Australia under this name is directly derived from this source is not known but it is visually similar to cultivars with this name and derivation in the USA. Chester Aarons, the famous garlic grower and writer about
- [White Crookneck](https://garlicaustralia.asn.au/garlics/turban/white-crookneck/) - The history of White Crookneck and how it arrived in Australia is currently unknown. This cultivar is unusual because of its white bulb skins and white to pale pink cloves. Garlic in the Turban Group usually have strongly striped bulb skins and stronger pink or purple cloves. Many Turban cultivars have been misnamed or perhaps
- [Tasmanian Purple](https://garlicaustralia.asn.au/garlics/turban/tasmanian-purple/) - Tasmanian Purple probably originally came from New Zealand Purple. New Zealand Purple was called this because it came from NZ to Australia, but was never actually called this in New Zealand. New Zealand Purple was starting to be widely available in Australia in 1984 and confusingly at this time was also called Red Japanese (M.

It won the Gold Medal at the Royal Melbourne Fine Food Awards in 2014. hardneck weakly_bolting None known None, this is an Australian cultivar An excellent flavour, nice garlic
- [Monaro Purple](https://garlicaustralia.asn.au/garlics/turban/monaro-purple/) - The story about Monaro Purple says that it first appeared in the Snowy Mountains around 80 years ago when the first Yugoslavian tunnel diggers for the Snowy Hydro Scheme brought the garlic out from Europe. While there is no proof of this proposition, there is also no reason why it couldn't be true. The name
- [Italian Purple](https://garlicaustralia.asn.au/garlics/turban/italian-purple/) - There are several Turban cultivars with strong purple striped skins that are called Italian Purple. They may be the same as one of the garlics grown by the Italian communities of Leeton and Griffiths in NSW in the 1970s.

- [Glamour](https://garlicaustralia.asn.au/garlics/turban/glamour/) - This garlic was named by Patrice Newell of Elmswood Farm, New South Wales. It is similar to Monaro Purple.

Some Turban cultivars have been misnamed or perhaps misidentified as Rocambole
- [Flinders Island Purple](https://garlicaustralia.asn.au/garlics/turban/flinders-island-purple/) - Flinders Island Purple is originally sourced from Sophie & Mark Pitchford Brymworth Farm, Flinders Island. It was grown by them from a cultivar called Tasmanian Purple, and may originally have come from New Zealand Purple. New Zealand Purple was called this because it came from NZ to Australia, but was not called this in NZ.
- [Turban Group](https://garlicaustralia.asn.au/garlics/turban/) - Most of the hardneck garlics grown in Australia fall into this Group. Many cultivars have been given names by their growers and may actually be the same as other cultivars with different names so there are very many cultivars in the Turban Group. In Australia there are perhaps only 10 or a few more different
- [Middle Eastern Group](https://garlicaustralia.asn.au/garlics/middle-eastern/) - The Middle Eastern Group is not as well defined as other groups. In the USA they are described as having small bulbs, narrow leaves and as being weakly bolting. In Australia, two named cultivars, Kisswani and Yabroudi that are supposed to be in this Group have large, lumpy bulbs, big cloves, broad floppy leaves and
- [Spanish Roja](https://garlicaustralia.asn.au/garlics/creole/spanish-roja/) - There are at least two different garlics that go under the name ‘Spanish Roja’.

- [Artichoke Group](https://garlicaustralia.asn.au/garlics/artichoke/) - Artichoke garlics are one of the most commonly grown and best known groups.

- [Italian Red](https://garlicaustralia.asn.au/garlics/subtropical-group/italian-red/) - This garlic is in the Subtropical Group along with Southern Glen, Glen Large and Italian Pink.
