Cavolo Broccolo Ramoso Calabrese Seeds Early, Tender & Productive Italian Variety

This traditional Italian broccoli variety forms a compact, tender central head followed by a generous flush of side shoots, giving a long and productive harvest window. The plants are vigorous yet manageable in size, making them ideal for home gardens, raised beds and small‑scale market growers.
The heads are firm, green and pleasantly aromatic, perfect for steaming, sautéing, roasting or adding to pasta dishes and soups. With its early cycle and reliable regrowth, this Calabrian type is a favourite for gardeners who want steady yields and authentic Mediterranean flavour throughout the season.

Growing information
🌱 Sowing
Sow in trays or directly outdoors on a fine, well‑prepared seedbed.
Transplant when seedlings are sturdy, keeping the soil consistently moist for strong establishment.
☀️ Light
Thrives in full sun but tolerates light partial shade, especially in warmer climates.
💧 Watering
Water regularly to maintain steady growth and prevent stress.
Aim for even moisture rather than heavy, infrequent watering.
🌡️ Germination
Germinates in roughly 7–14 days in moist soil at mild spring or early‑summer temperatures.
📏 Spacing & size
Transplant or thin to about 40–50 cm between plants for good airflow and head development.
Keep 50–60 cm between rows to allow for easy access and side‑shoot production.
