I cannot claim to have grown these leeks myself, I Wish, the picture was taken at the Malvern Autumn Show

My own 'Saint Day' celebrations will be on April 23rd, this is just a good excuse to post another 'veg' picture on the site :D

The danger when people start to believe their own publicity is that they often fall off their own ego.
At least travelling under the guise of the Pa Snip Enterprise gives me an excuse for appearing to be on another planet

Beautiful leeks. The people of Wales have luckily got a national veg, what about English, Scottish and Irish? Do we have a national veg?

I think not MW, nearest Ireland get is by having a green manure and Scotland an attractant of Goldfinch's but I don't think many are keen on thistle roots on the plot.

Those of us that are English just get bloody fingers from the thorns on our national flower :lol:

Not a vegetable, but I always think of apples as England's contribution.
