Italian Sprouting Broccoli Seeds

Italian sprouting broccoli is a gardener’s dream and rapidly gaining in popularity. This delicious and versatile vegetable bridges the gap between summer and winter harvests, growing tender, flavourful spears you can steam, sauté, add to stir-fries, or make into soups. A must-have for any home garden, these broccoli seeds grow quickly in well-cultivated soil and are ideal for smaller spaces, so you can grow them even if all you have is a patio or a balcony.

With its long cropping period, Italian sprouting broccoli rewards your efforts with multiple harvests of nutrient-rich spears that are packed with flavour. Sow in spring for a crop that fills the gap between your summer favourites and hearty winter staples.
