Calabrese (Italian broccoli) is a great treat in late summer and early autumn, either steamed and eaten hot, or warm as part of a salad. Once the main head has been harvested, side shoots will be produced for later eating. Sow Date: Feb-Apr . Harvest/Flower Date: Aug-Sep

Grow your own for the best flavour and you can eat it minutes after picking. Compact, dark green leaves, with a very solid, crisp and crunchy heart. Extraordinarily sweet and just perfect for individual salads.
