BROCCOLI 



ITALIAN GREEN SPROUTING This vigorous plant is entirely 

 different from the white heading sorts. Cultivated like 

 cabbage, it bears a succession of sprouting heads which, 

 if kept cut, will be replaced by others for 8 or 10 weeks. 

 Each sprout, about 5 inches long, ends in a small head of 

 deep green buds. Many think this vegetable superior in 

 flavor to cauliflower.
