hardy and the so-called head is bluish-green instead of white.

each leaf on the stalks below. At the end of each branch a 
small loose green head develops. These small heads should 
be cut with 6 to 8 inches of stem, and tied in bunches for 
market. Stems, as well as flower-heads, are cooked and 
served like asparagus or cauliflower. A most delicious 
vegetable.
