I would love to try this, or any perennial leek variety. Can someone help?

If you're in the Northern Hemisphere, you may need to wait till later in the year. My babbington leek 'bloom' in late summer and I scatter the bulbils in autumn to sprout about now (April). I'm based in the UK though, so probably not best as a source if you're US based. Let me know if I can help (anyone). I will have some bulbils in a few months.
