Brassica oleracea
A real treat in the garden, Piracicaba is a sweet, flavourful broccoli that’s perfect for picking over a long period. The initial central head is relatively small, however it produces an abundance of loose florets with large beads on long, tender stems which make it ideal for regular harvesting. Thriving in warmer conditions where other broccolis might struggle, it’s a brilliant choice for extending your season. We grew it in 2024 and absolutely loved it, it was one of those crops we were always happy to see more of. (Approximate seed count - 150)
