Every supermarket sells Calabrese and calls it Broccoli - it isn't We can't see anything wrong with the name Calabrese which is an excellent vegetable and especially good with its fine grained sprouting heads.

We doubt if you will beat our selection, which is repeat sprouting from June until November. A blend of varieties to ensure continued cropping.

This vegetable is especially good for freezing and nutritionally rich in vitamins.

Recommended by the RHS to be an excellent attractant and nectar source for bees and other beneficial insects if allowed to 'go over' and flower (so if you have room leave any plants in that have gone too far rather than pulling them out straight away).

Supplied as compost block grown plants.
