Calabrese broccoli, an heirloom variety introduced to the U.S. by Italian gardeners between 1914 and 1918, is prized for its classic flavor and reliable production. This variety develops a central head measuring 3 to 6 inches in diameter, accompanied by numerous side shoots that extend the harvest period. Typically ready to harvest in about 60 days, these seeds offer a germination rate of approximately 80% or higher. As Non-GMO seeds, they support sustainable gardening practices. This proven cultivar thrives in cool-season gardens and performs well across diverse growing regions. The multiple side shoots that emerge after the main head is harvested make Calabrese an economical choice, providing successive yields from a single planting. Its consistent performance and vigorous growth habit have made it a gardener favorite for generations, whether grown in home gardens or market operations. The packaging reflects our commitment to environmental stewardship, utilizing reusable, recyclable, and climate-friendly materials that minimize waste while protecting seed viability. Each packet contains carefully selected seeds bred for germination strength and genetic purity, ensuring you start your season with confidence.
