Green Calabrese, Broccoli

A very hardy and very prolific producer of large dark green heads. Open-pollinated delicious 18-28" tall with 3-6" diameter head. Will bear until frost in colder areas. A popular home garden variety that is richly flavored. After cutting the main head, more side shoots develop, producing many smaller to medium-sized heads through the summer. It can be canned, frozen, or eaten fresh. The flavor of this broccoli will make you never buy store-bought again. 70 days.

Although the heads of this Broccoli variety are typically the only thing utilized, the stalks, buds, and leaves are also edible. Try growing a few seeds to just the Micro-leaf stage. Microgreens are used like sprouts, as a garnish, in gourmet salads, or sprinkled on sandwiches. Harvest with scissors when forming their first leaves and add to brown bread and butter or to a pasta dish. They are very tender with clarity of flavor…. a true superfood.
