smooth, reddish orange, tapered and blunt

Broccoli 
One ounce seed will produce about 1500 plants. 
A vegetable very similar to cauliflower but 
less delicate in flavor. Hardy, thrives best in 
cool weather and should be hoed and watered 
frequently. Sow the seed inside or in cold 
frames in January or February and set out 
plants when ground is warm. A large bluish 
green flower bud head forms in the center. 
After this is removed, small heads are pro- 
duced on side branches. Cultivate same as 
cauliflower. 
Italian Green Sprouting Calabrese. A fa- 
vorite vegetable with the Italians and now be- 
coming very popular in our American gardens. 
The plant forms good sized heads, and after 
these are cut, other heads form, providing 
fresh vegetables for a long season. Sow early 
in cold frames for spring; outdoors in June 
and July for a fall crop.

formed along the stalk. Prepare like cabbage 
or in cream, like cauliflower. Sow seed in 
spring; transplant and cultivate same as cab- 
bage, except leaves should be broken down in 
fall, giving heads more room to grow. Freez- 
ing improves the quality of the sprouts. They 
may be left in the ground, here in the North, 
until December.
