Leek Seeds Elefant (Allium porrum)

💰 Price: Package of 300 (1g) seeds


The Leek Elefant (Allium porrum) is a hardy and reliable variety of leek known for its long, thick, and flavorful shanks. It is an excellent over-winter variety, ensuring that you can enjoy its fresh flavor during the colder months. The plant is also a good source of vitamin C, iron, and folate, making it a healthy addition to your garden and meals. 🌱

The Leek Elefant is known for its excellent flavor, which is rich, sweet, and perfect for adding to soups, stews, and a variety of dishes. The more soil that is drawn up around the plant, the longer and whiter the shank will grow. This variety does particularly well in well-cultivated, fertile soil and is perfect for those who want to grow leeks for the long term. 🥬


How to Grow Leek Elefant Seeds (Allium porrum) 🌱

  1. Sowing Time

  • Outdoors: Sow the seeds thinly from March to April in a well-prepared seed bed. 🌸

  • Indoors: Start seeds in January to February if you want to get a head start on the growing season. 🌿

  1. Sowing Depth ⬇️

  • Outdoors: Sow seeds at a depth of 1.5cm (½") directly into fertile, well-cultivated soil. 🌱

  • Indoors: Sow 0.5cm (¼") deep in a tray of compost. 🏡

  1. Seedling Care 💧

  • Outdoors: Water well after sowing and keep the soil moist until seedlings appear, which typically takes 14-28 days. 🌞

  • Indoors: Water regularly and keep in a cold frame or unheated greenhouse to ensure that they stay moist.

  1. Transplanting 🌿
    Once seedlings are large enough to handle:

  • Outdoors: Transplant them into holes 15cm (6") deep and 15cm (6") apart. Leave 30cm (1') between rows to allow for growth. 🌳

  • Indoors: After 4-6 weeks, transplant seedlings 5cm (2") apart into other trays. Gradually acclimatize them to the outside conditions before planting out. 🌸

  1. Watering 💧
    Ensure the soil is consistently moist, especially during the growing season. Avoid overwatering and allow the soil to drain properly to prevent waterlogging. 🌿


Plant Care & Maintenance 🌱

  1. Soil Requirements 🌱
    Leeks thrive in fertile, well-drained soil. It’s essential to ensure that the soil is loamy and rich in organic matter. Before sowing, prepare the soil by removing weeds and adding compost or organic fertilizer. 🌾

  2. Fertilization 🌸
    Feed the plants with balanced fertilizer during the growing season. This helps support their growth and encourages the long white shank typical of leeks. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to poor growth. 🌱

  3. Pruning & Thinning ✂️
    As the plants grow, you may need to thin out seedlings to ensure they have adequate space. Keep the seedlings well-spaced to avoid overcrowding, which can lead to weaker plants. 🌿

  4. Protection 🛡️
    Leeks can be susceptible to pests like onion fly or leaf miners. Use natural pest control methods, such as nematodes or diluted garlic spray to protect the plants. 🐞


Harvesting Leek Elefant 🌾

  • When to Harvest: Leeks are ready to harvest from October to March.

  • How to Harvest: Carefully dig up the leeks, being careful not to damage the shanks. Leeks can remain in the ground for several weeks even after reaching maturity, making them a perfect winter crop. 🌱


Leek Elefant is a wonderful addition to your garden, offering delicious, nutritious leeks that can be harvested throughout the winter months. Whether you’re a beginner gardener or an experienced grower, this variety is easy to care for and will reward you with a bountiful harvest of tasty leeks. 🥬🌿
