Leeks
Allium porrum | Pkt. $3.00 | approx. 300 seeds
King Richard
75 days. An extremely early leek packed with sweet flavour. Long white stems can reach 30 cm.long with very little bulbing. Can withstand freezing down to –7 celcius. Use in soups of all sorts or braise until meltingly sweet.
Giant Musselburgh
105 days from transplant. This popular Scottish heirloom dates to 1834. It is a late maturing, cold tolerant leek that will feed you in the fall, winter over, then provide good eating in early spring. Large plants have very thick, tender white stocks that reach 7 cm. in diameter. The mild flavour is essential in stock and of course, leek and potato soup. Grow in a cold frame and you can harvest all winter long.
