If you can't wait for the autumn leek harvest, use Leek Lincoln to bring your crops into summer! An early spring sowing will lead to medium sized clean white shanks for picking in late summer. With little risk of bolting and inbuilt disease resistance, it also stands well in the soil for harvest right through autumn - if you have the restraint to leave some of the tender, full flavoured shanks in the ground that long!
A particularly early cropping variety that can be lifted by July from an early planting, but will easily stand until Christmas from a later planting. The long, slender stems of Leek 'King Richard' are full flavoured and ideal for slicing.
Plant these leeks in mid-june for a bountiful harvest in autumn. Leek 'Mercurian' is a new leek variety that has long white stems, and doesn't become 'bulby'.
