The spiky heads of Romanesco Broccoli (Brassica oleracea) grow in an unusual fractal formation. This Italian heirloom produces 5-6" heads with a mild, nutty flavor similar to cauliflower. Seed packet contains 750 MG (about 275 seeds).
Broccoli is perfect eaten raw, roasted, steamed and added to stir fries and soups. The stems are excellent in stir fries and casseroles, and the leaves can also be eaten like you would kale. Large, premium seed packets give instructions on how to grow and when to plant outdoors.
Start indoors 4-6 weeks before planting outside. May also be sown directly outdoors in late summer for a fall crop. Plant in well-draining soil rich in organic matter. Keep well-watered for consistent growth.
