Leeks coming into their own.

Leeks in raised bed
 Some of the leeks look more like wading birds.  The flowers are white and pale purple.  They are so striking and architectural I wish we had them in the border at home.

I am hoping that a few of m onions also go to seed.  I have been advised that you can collect the seeds and then use them as a spice when cooking (lightly fried).
