Description
- Early variety, harvesting from August.
- Long white shafts with mid-green leaves.
- Pleasant, mild flavour.
Great healthy, vigorous early exclusive variety ready to crop from mid-summer. Uniform in growth these make an attractive addition on your plot.
Leeks appreciate a sunny spot so bear this in mind when sowing or planting. It pays to prepare the soil well before sowing leeks or adding young plants. In the winter add lots of bulky compost or manure to the soil to increase the nutrient levels.
To top up and really put the young plants in good stead, add a general purpose fertiliser a couple of weeks before sowing or planting.

Sow Outdoors
March-April: Sow thinly into pre-watered soil 1⁄2in (1cm) deep in rows 6in (15cm) apart in seed bed. Keep soil moist at all times.

Tip
To ensure a long white shaft draw up soil around plants as they develop. Keep well watered and feed regularly.
