The variety Bulgarsk Kæmpe, which translates from Danish as “Bulgarian Giant,” is a classic representative of the crop. It is frequently mentioned in European agronomic lists as an equivalent to the variety Bulgaarse Reuzen.
The plant reaches a height of about 90 cm and is characterized by a dense structure and a long blanched stem section. The variety has been used in scientific research as an object for evaluating susceptibility to viral diseases, in particular, to Leek yellow stripe virus (LYSV).
Leeks of this variety are used in cooking, including use in private households for food preparation and preservation.
