Seed breaks ground in about 4 days. One inch 
high in 7 days under most favorable circum¬

the Cauliflower, and like it derived from the wild 
Cabbage. Broccoli requires a longer season to de¬ 
velop than Cauliflower. It has more numerous and 
stiffer leaves, and the heads are smaller. The seed 
is best sown in Midsummer and Autumn, and the 
plants carried over the Winter for planting out in 
Spring.

This is a so-called new vegetable introduced into the 
United States in the last few years, but has been 
well known in Italy for generations. The Italian 
population in the United States has taken to it 
very freely, as have all users of vegetables. It 
should be sown very early in the Spring and mar¬ 
keted in July and August. This vegetable bears a 
succession of deep green heads, about 5 inches long.
