Grow a gourmet kitchen staple with our American Flag Leek seeds. This beloved heirloom is prized for its long, thick, white stems and a mild, sweet onion flavor that is more delicate and refined than a common onion. It's an incredibly versatile vegetable, perfect for adding a savory depth to soups, stews, and stocks, or for braising and roasting on its own. This leek is exceptionally cold-hardy, making it an excellent choice for a long harvest season that can extend well into the fall.
