Broccoli ‘Summer Sprouting’
Standard pack: 75 seeds.
This variety specifically bred for summer cropping, producing excellent harvests of tender purple spears without the need for winter chill. It tolerates heat far better than traditional sprouting types, giving you a reliable supply of flavourful shoots from mid‑summer right through to the first frosts.
Plants are productive, resilient and ideal for extending your brassica season, offering a long window of harvest when other varieties have finished. Cut the central spear first to encourage a steady flush of side shoots, and keep plants well watered in dry spells to support continuous growth.
