Description

THE LEEK.
127
Large Rouen. Thomp.
Gros de Rouen. Vil.
Leaves very dark-green, broad, and of
thick substance ; stem rather short, but re-
markably thick, sometimes measuring nearly
four inches in diameter. It is now the vari-
ety most cultivated near Paris ; and, since its
general dissemination, has been much ap-
proved by all who have grown it. It is
found to be the best kind for forcing, as it
acquires a sufficient thickness of stem sooner
than any other. In England, it is pronounced
one of the best, if not the best, of all varie-
ties.
Little Montagne. Vil.
Stem very short and slender ; foliage deeper green than that
of the Common Flag. It is the smallest of the leeks. Not
much cultivated.
London Flag.
Large Flag. Broad Flag. English Flag. Gros Court. Vil.
Stem about four inches in length, and nearly an inch and a
half in diameter. The leaves are larger, of a paler color, and
softer in their texture, than those of the Common Flag.
The London-flag Leek is hardy, and of good quality. It
is more generally cultivated in this country than any other
variety.
Musselburgh. Thomp.
Scotch Flag. Edinburgh Improved.
Stem somewhat shorter than that of the London Flag, but
of equal thickness. The swelling at the base has the same

form. The leaves are broad and tall, and spread regularly in

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
