<p>The beautiful geometric pattern of the pale green florets of this variety of broccoli is a must for the potager and the vegetable platter! This is a cold weather crop that likes well drained, moisture retaining soil. Sow directly outside in soil about 1 inch (2.5cm) deep or start indoors 5 weeks early. Do not plant near strawberries or pole beans. Harvest when heads are hard and green. Broccoli is one of the healthiest foods you can eat.</p>
