Broccoli seeds — calabrese and sprouting types

Broccoli gives one of the most rewarding harvests in the veg garden — tender flower heads and side shoots packed with flavour and goodness. Another form of Brassica oleracea, it sits within our cabbage family range. New to growing? Our vegetable growing guide covers the basics.

Calabrese crops in summer, sprouting broccoli over winter — the calendar shows when to sow.

Calabrese vs sprouting broccoli

Calabrese forms a large central head in summer and autumn from a spring sowing; purple and white sprouting broccoli are hardy, sown in spring to crop masses of tender spears the following late winter and spring — a precious harvest in the hungry gap. Both belong with our leafy brassicas.

Growing broccoli from seed

Sow in modules and transplant into firm, fertile, limed soil, keeping plants well watered. Net against pests (our pest control guide helps), and pick the central head while tight, then keep cutting the side shoots that follow.
