Overall Taste Yield Ease	Suffolk, New York, United States Frost Free Season: More than 203 days Soil Texture: Sand Garden Size: Small - Less than 400 square feet (20' x 20') Sun Exposure: 6 to 8 hours per day
Very mild flavor unless ag sulphur is added to the soil before planting. A minor quibble for leeks that don't have to monopolize a chunk of garden for an entire growing season.
