Das zeichnet Schnittzwiebel Winterhecke aus
Winterhecke stands out for its exceptional frost tolerance among leek varieties. While most leeks require a long growing season and mild winters, this Allium fistulosum cultivar is specifically selected for overwintering outdoors in Central European climates. The name "Winterhecke" reflects its role as a reliable winter vegetable that fills the gap when other garden crops are dormant.
Ideal for...
Home gardeners in cooler climates who want a reliable winter harvest without the need for heated greenhouses or indoor growing setups. Also well suited for community gardens and educational plots where a low-maintenance, year-round crop is desired.
