Description
I am SUPER excited about introducing everyone to Spigarello. Classified as both a broccoli and a kale, this has narrow, elegant curly leaves which you can eat as a green all through the winter without apparently compromising the plant, and then in spring, tight, tasty flower buds like purple-sprouting broccoli. These develop further into edible flowers which look and taste delicious and the bees feast away on their nectar and pollen-rich flowers. It’s a four-in-one-plant and has – in my view — got to be grown.
Care Tips
Grows best on soil which has been manured the previous autumn. Protect against cabbage white butterflies with fine netting. Firm the soil well around plant base to prevent wind rock and provide stakes to support tall plants in autumn.
