I have been away for weeks and when I got home, the weather had turned very cold. My leeks are now frozen in the ground. Are they a complete loss?

Certified ExpertA.They may not be yet, but if you do not get them out of the ground soon, they will be. Harvest them as soon as you can.

When planting onions and leeks, do each of the stalks have to be planted individually? They each came with about 20 stalks and in one bundle with all of the roots grown together.

Certified ExpertA.They can be frozen, but they will not be as pretty when they are thawed. If you plan on cooking with them, this is not a problem, as the heat of the cooking process would leave them looking like this anyway.
