Has a very long season of use thanks to its hardiness. Long, white stems and dark green flags.
Can be picked as baby leeks from late summer or left to mature into long white shanks with healthy, dark green foliage. Has good resistance to bulbing.
A superb late summer/autumn selection with medium long shanks of top quality and good flavour. Plants are resistant to bulbing and to bolting.

May not improve your brain power, but you'll love this tasty leek which is perfect for high density production of 'baby' leeks or for a normal spacing of good, long shanks. Always very slow to bolt.
The latest leek. Stands harsh winters to provide a tasty harvest from February through to May. Resists rust and white tip.
The tastiest leek? It's a favourite in our kitchens. A late maincrop which produces thick, solid stems.
Well named for it has very long shanks, which are ready in October, but will stand in good condition until the following March. So useful in the kitchen and a good one for exhibition work.
Introduced in the 1880s and still going strong on the show bench and in the kitchen. The long, thick, delicious shanks are very cold hardy, staying in good condition in the garden for months.
An excellent choice for organic and low fertiliser regimes, this quick maturing autumn cropper holds its condition right through the winter, giving broad, heavy shanks of fine flavour. A first rate modern variety.
A splendid Victorian variety which is still a great favourite with many of our customers. A mid season leek with thick, rather short stems of very good flavour. Very hardy and totally reliable.
Believe it or not, but this fast growing leek produces edible stems up to 60cm/24in long! Ready to lift from late summer into autumn, it has a lovely mild flavour and good texture. A most impressive variety, and one with a future on the showbench.
Medium-sized butterhead (soft hearted) variety, slow to bolt and with a long harvesting period.
A most attractive variety with red-tinged outer leaves. The medium to large, well filled hearts have an outstandingly good flavour. We thoroughly recommend Babylon.

This non-hearting 'oak leaf' lettuce has thick leaves of excellent flavour and texture. Ornamental enough for patio pots.
If you enjoy Little Gem, but have a big appetite, grow this superbly sweet and crisp larger version. Chatsworth has excellent mildew resistance.
An outstanding, soft-leaved lettuce, producing tasty heads of medium size. Very good for both early and late sowings, it is virus-tolerant and resistant to 10 strains of mildew.
This extra-sweet, medium sized cos usually comes top in our taste tests - quite an achievement when Little Gem is in contention! It has excellent resistance to tip burn, bolting and Bremia.
