This broccoli variety has a small and compact, semi-domed head that also produces 'bonus side shoots' after the main head is cut. Delicious stir-fried, steamed until tender or enjoy raw in salads.
Sow into trays of Yates Black Magic Seed Raising Mix. Firm down and keep moist. Transplant when about 7cm high.
Choose a well-drained, sunny position. Prior to planting mix Yates Thrive Natural Blood & Bone into the soil. Apply Yates Thrive All Purpose Granular Plant Food regularly and keep seedlings well watered. Protect from snails and slugs.
Plant in a different position each year to avoid soil-borne diseases. Harvest the head while it is still tight and before the flowers open.
