Broccoli
A gourmet treat! Yields tender, dark green side shoots with bite-size heads and long, edible stems instead of producing one large broccoli head, perfect for stir fries and sautéing. Pinch the main head when it reaches 1-1 1/2” to trigger side shoot formation. Harvest the smaller heads that follow when stems are 6-7″ long. Yields many side shoots through the growing season. 2015 All-America Selections winner.
