Ok even though I'm replying after CtM I agree with 3, they have a tint of yellow?

I missed out on this yesterday. I've not got a clue really, only ever grown one sort of leek, but in for a penny, in for a pound. If it was in my garden the smell of the leaves would give clues, but as Veggie isn't smelly, I'm guessing.
