Average Rating

This was the first broccoli I started planting over 15 years ago and have grown it on and off since in western MN. I plant from seed in late June, 1/4 inch deep in soil with a pH of 7.9 and available N at least 100 lbs. per acre. The first cutting yields 6-9" heads in early September with recurring side shoots. The heads must be watched closely just prior to harvest since they will flower quickly--I call the time between the budding time to the time which they flower, "the holding time." In this variety, the holding time is very short especially as compared to a variety like Pac-man. It is ideally suited to a smaller garden incorporating staggered plantings from mid-June to early July. It has excellent flavor, a dependable and good producer, and the seed is relatively inexpensive.
