Leeks
Who doesn’t love a good leek? As part of the onion family, leeks are closely related to the likes of spring onions, shallots, garlic, and chives. So, all the good stuff that makes your breath smell a little funky!
Although it might not surprise you to learn that leeks grow beneath the ground and have leaves that fall down above the soil, what you might not realize is that leeks also sprout beautiful flowers. Wild leeks will often sprout this stunning purple flower when they are overgrown, as these flowers let growers know that they have grown a little too large.
