Cauliflower Purple of Sicily - 25 Non-GMO, Heirloom Seeds
Cauliflower Purple of Sicily, also known as Cauliflower Sicilian Violet, is a unique heirloom variety famous for its vibrant purple florets and mild, sweet flavor. These non-GMO seeds produce compact, dense heads that retain their striking purple color even after cooking. This variety is perfect for fresh eating, roasting, or adding to vegetable dishes, making it a standout addition to any garden. Move beyond bland white cauliflower and discover a vegetable that's as beautiful as it is delicious. The deep purple heads create stunning visual appeal on the plate and in the garden, impressing family and guests while delivering superior flavor—sweeter and more tender than standard varieties. Unlike white cauliflower that can taste bland or sulfurous, Purple of Sicily offers a mild, nutty sweetness that shines whether raw in salads, roasted until caramelized, or steamed as a side dish. This variety is also known for its excellent disease resistance, making it a reliable and easy-to-grow choice for gardeners of all skill levels. The compact growth habit fits perfectly in smaller garden spaces and containers, while the dense heads mature reliably without the fussiness of other heirloom brassicas. The purple pigmentation comes from natural anthocyanins—the same antioxidants found in blueberries—adding nutritional value to your harvest.
