Brussel sprouts, Ideal selection z
Brassica oleracea var. gemmifera
These full and leafy brussel sprouts rise to 80 cm high. They are best for mid-late cultivation and are very hardy and robust. They handle the cold and give beautiful stalks for market displays.
Growing instructions
Sow in April in seedling trays and later transfer to planter boxes at 5 ✕ 5 cm spacing. Transplant to the open field at 50 ✕ 50 cm spacing in nutrient-rich soil. If brussel sprout rosette formation lags into October, pinch the top off the plant to encourage development. Harvest from late autumn to spring.
