Broccoli, Romanesco | Garden Seeds and Plants

Broccoli, Romanesco

With beautiful, apple-green whorled heads, this variety has been a culinary delight since the 16th century.
Romanesco is the preeminent Italian heirloom variety and was first documented in Italy in the 16th century. Its crisp, beautiful apple-green whorled heads impart an altogether pleasing, nutty taste. Most often enjoyed raw, the broccoli, if lightly cooked, will retain its flavor and unique texture.
