Product Overview
Brassica oleracea
This Italian heirloom is an outstanding broccoli. The lime green heads make a unique statement with its stunning whorls forming a fractal pattern and looking somewhat like an alien vegetable. The texture is firm and crunchy when raw and compared to cauliflower, has a mild, almost nutty flavor. Enjoys a cooler growing season and is quite frost tolerant.
These plants get a little larger than your standard cauliflower and broccoli plants, so plan accordingly, also allow for a larger pot for container gardening.
Also known as: Broccolo Romanesco or Cavolo Romaneco (Italy), Pyramid cauliflower or Pyramiden blumenkohl (Germany), Broccoflower (USA)
