American Flag Leek
American Flag Leek
Giant Flag—a member of the onion family but more delicately flavored. Very mild and sweet—superb creamed and delicious for soups and stews. The edible stems are 6 to 8 inches in length and about 1 inch in diameter. Hardy and easily grown. 85 days to maturity.
Planting guide: Sow early in spring 1/4 inch deep in drills 12 to 15 inches apart. Thin to 5 inches apart, and draw the earth about them when cultivating. When plants have attained almost full size the earth should be drawn around them to a height of 6 or 8 inches, so as to blanch the fleshy stems.
