BROCCOLI 'Green Sprouting' Calabrese Vegetable - Vegetable Garden Plant - 100X Seeds
Used by Romans and called "cabbage flower" and in England as "Italian Asparagus" from early 1700's. High vitamin C and protein. Likes soil rich and well watered. Sow anytime to ensure harvest during cooler months, doesn't do best in hot weather. Frost hardy. Grows to 10 cm tall. Broccoli grow better in the cooler months as they have more pest problems and grow more straggly in the hotter months. The main pest which attacks Broccoli in the Brisbane area is the green cabbage caterpillar. The easiest way to remove these is with your fingers then squash with your boot. These caterpillars are the result of the eggs laid by the white cabbage moth. Spray with molasses spray as it helps deter chewing insects like caterpillars and grasshoppers.
