Leek, 'Carentan'
Allium ampeloprasum var. porrum
French Heirloom leek, large, mild and delicious. In cool areas sow in punnets from early spring to late summer, then plant into fertile soil in full sun, thinning plants to 15cm spacings. Hill soil up around stems as plants grow to keep sun from the white shank. Holds well in the garden, but can be eaten at any stage of growth, from little finger sized to large.
