Winter-long supplies Stems great for steaming Suitable to grow in the harshest conditions Every packet of seeds gives you 50 plants. That’s a great way to make savings from your food shopping. Brokali ‘Columbia’ is an exciting exclusive variety for autumn and winter harvest. It has good tolerance to cold temperatures and will produce an impressive yield of long stemmed florets after most other main crop varieties of broccoli. The flavour and texture is sweeter and more succulent than standard Broccoli and is ideal for stir fries and tempura. To get the most out of ‘Columbia’ we recommend you harvest by cutting the main head when it’s the size of an egg, then the side stems will produce more florets on the plant lower down. Once these are harvested, yet more will appear and the process can continue for about two months. By cropping in this way you can enjoy melt-in-the mouth and delicious stems over a long period.
