Gourmet Style! A unique and beautiful dark green stem mini broccoli, this vigorous early maturing Broccolini will produce sweet, tender side shoots over a period of several weeks. The small main head should be harvested early to encourage the production of side shoots. Home gardeners can make the art of gardening and cooking come alive with this delicious, long-yielding variety!
Size: Mature plants reach about 18 in. tall, producing small heads and numerous side shoots.
Yield: Expect continuous side shoot production once the main head is harvested, providing a steady supply over time.
Taste: Sweet, tender texture with a mild, delightful flavour that enhances various dishes.
How to use: Ideal for steaming, stir-frying, or adding fresh to salads for a crunchy texture and lovely flavour.
Planting tips: Seed outdoors as soon as weather and soil conditions allow, covering seeds lightly with soil. Space 6-7 seeds per ft. of row and thin to 1 ft. apart once seedlings reach 3 in. Ideal soil temperature for germination is 21°C; reduce to about 15°C after germination.
Harvest tips: Harvest the main head early to encourage side shoot growth, which can be picked continuously for a longer harvest period.
