Leeks, 23 July 2026

One photograph from the 2026 season.

A King Richard leek lifted on 23 July, its shank running straight and pure white with no swelling anywhere along it, the leaves all leaving in one plane so the plant fans flat, hundreds of wiry roots matted at the far end and trailing over the edge.
