Broccoli – De Cicco (Autumn)

Quick growing for a late autumn crop

As long as the weather plays ball, this variety of broccoli should start to produce florets in late Autumn if planted in early (and if it doesn’t reach maturity, it will stand over the winter and crop in early spring). After the main broccoli head comes through, you’ll get a succession of smaller sprouting broccoli to harvest.

Number of plants: 10 plug plants

Variety: De Cicco (organic*) (sometimes known as Di Ciccio)

In the kitchen: Great for steaming, roasting, stir-frying and all sorts!
