25-23 BROCCOLI (Cavolo Broccolo) ramoso calabrese
	"Sprouting broccoli from Calabria" is tender with excellent taste and produces abundant side shoots from the main stem, and secondary stems. Compact, medium sized head. A favourite in Italy where it is eaten as a puree, par-boiled and then quickly braised with olive oil, garlic and chilli, and baked with butter and parmesan. Very good parboiled for salads, and as a pasta sauce. 5g  packet for about 1,000 seeds.   Sow in seed boxes and transplant/direct sow from spring through summer. Ready for harvest in 60-80 days, and the range of maturation times is well suited to the home gardener. Space 30-40cm apart in rows.	QTY:
