Aigburth 
Many varieties 
of Brussels 
Sprouts are 
shy bearers, 
and the side 
buds are ill 
formed and 
loose. On this 
account all 
market 
gardeners are 
looking for a 
fine, prolific, 
tight-forming 
strain. 
Aigburth is 
exceptionally 
prolific and 
bears fine, 
even little 
heads along 
the entire 
stem.
