Never seen a flowering leek before..

I will look with more respect when next time leek is on my plate - lovely :)

lensvision, it is not the meaning that it is flowering, it only does if you don't eat it in time :)
Jun 28 2008 18:32 GMT Lensvision
That´s why I´ve never seen it.....;)
Jun 28 2008 18:38 GMT marijke06
always in time :)

niiice! mine is still in "bud" form :)
I don't eat my leeks on time either... better let them bloom ;)
Jun 28 2008 21:01 GMT marijke06

this one isn't mine....but from neighbours in my street :)
Jun 28 2008 21:06 GMT Kaska
hmm... your neighbours don't eat leek on time either ;)
I should pick my green beans tomorrow though... still on time I think :)
Jun 28 2008 21:11 GMT marijke06
they are flowering before the beans are there....so they are not going to bloom :))

it's just made me think to be with eating some veggies from my garden on time... I have the flowering lettuce now :)
Jun 28 2008 21:24 GMT marijke06

Leek ....one thing you lack in your garden :)))
Jun 29 2008 07:14 GMT marijke06
hallo, I have them, but they are too young to get flowers, if I left some there they will, I hope :))
better hungry some days than no flowers :))

Sounds like me and my garlic. You must take a picture when the flowerets open. I'm curious as to their color.

powerful.

whatisee: it is the same family I think.....the allium family....looks indeed very much like each other :) I try to make one more when the flowers are opened, it is not in my garden, but in one of my neighbour's so maybe I forget to to so :)

FANTASTIC!!!

Allez! Allowed in the neighbours garden even ;) In Groningen I wasn't even allowed to pick one little flower, remember?;)
Jul 01 2008 14:51 GMT marijke06
