Romanesco
Approx. 50 seeds.
A striking and unusual crop, producing lime‑green heads made up of perfect spiralling florets. Often described as sitting somewhere between cauliflower and broccoli, it’s both beautiful to grow and increasingly popular in the kitchen.
The flavour is milder and nuttier than traditional cauliflower, with a firmer, crunchier texture that holds up well whether steamed, roasted or served cold in salads. Its geometric heads make it a real showpiece in the veg patch and on the plate.
