Description
A natural still life botanical image captured with a shallow depth of field to highlight the tiny flowers bursting from the scape sac. Leek Scapes or shoots are the leafless flower stems of a leek plant, once they push through the papery sac the tiny flowers burst forth. In a few weeks they will go to seed and can be planted for another years crop. The scapes are edible before they go to flower and are considered a gourmet treat tasting somewhat like asparagus.
