Leek Autumn Giant is a Western European heirloom leek is celebrated for its fine culinary qualities as well as its reliable, uniform growing ability. An exemplary variety, it was given an Award of Garden Merit by the Royal Horticultural Society. The RHS noted its uniform stems with resistance to bolting and bulbiness.
They are large leeks that can grow up to 10cm in diameter with thick long shafts and dark green erect foliage. Harvest while young and tender early in the season, or leave them to bulk up as they’ll stand well in the ground for you to harvest as you need them.
They are packed with vitamins and minerals and can be used in salads, stews, quiches and bakes.
