Plant seeds closely, and use alternate spacing techniques, such as four to six rows between plants, based on desired size. Within approximately 75 days, these leeks will be ready to be harvested, adding a touch of royalty to your garden and plate. Embrace the grandeur of the King Richard leek in your garden today!
