Brassica oleracea Seeds

Broccoli Green Sprouting Calabrese

Broccoli (from the Italian piccoli bracci, meaning "little arms") is a plant of the cabbage family Brassicaceae (formerly Cruciferae).

An increasingly popular nutritious vegetable. Delicious when eaten raw, steamed, cooked or stir-fried. Easy to grow and productive in the home garden.

It is classified as the Italica cultivar group of the species Brassica oleracea. Broccoli possesses abundant arboreal, luscious, fleshy, flower heads, usually green in color, arranged in a tree-like fashion on branches sprouting from a thick, edible, sturdy, meaty stalk. The mass of flower heads is surrounded by lavish leaves.

Broccoli most closely resembles cauliflower, which is a different cultivar group of the same species, but broccoli is green while cauliflower can appear in purple and yellow in addition to the traditional white variety. In the United States, the term refers exclusively to the form with a single large head. This form is sometimes called "Calabrese".
