Novelty vegetable, cross between Brussels sprouts and kale.
A completely new vegetable, created through years of breeding. It grows like Brussels sprouts, but instead of the usual florets, small mini cabbages emerge, reminiscent of Savoy cabbage heads. These mini cabbages have a unique, mild, nutty flavor and are prepared like Brussels sprouts. Previously sold as Flower Sprout Early.
Sow from early March to May using pre-seeding; then transplant at a spacing of 50 x 50 cm. Harvest takes place from October to the end of December.
Flower Sprout is a heavy eater and must be provided with sufficient nutrients.
