Calabrese Broccoli seeds:
Introducing our Calabrese Broccoli seeds! These easy-to-grow heirloom seeds boast a rich Italian heritage, with a history dating back to the early 1900s when they were brought to the U.S. by Italian immigrants. As a more traditional variety of broccoli, many will delight in its familiar taste and versatility in the kitchen. Perfect for both early and late-season growing, Calabrese broccoli is a reliable addition to any garden. With its potential to reach heights of 30-60, each plant produces a thick stalk adorned with a large, dark green-blue crown. And don't worry about harvesting just one crown - once cut, multiple side shoots will emerge, giving birth to baby crowns for continuous fresh broccoli enjoyment.
Not only is the crown delicious, but the stalk can also be savored, offering the same delightful taste as the top crown. This means that from just one plant, you can stretch your bounty and savor the goodness on your dinner table. With a maturity date of 60-90 days, depending on your growing season, the crowns will expand to a tantalizing 5-6 in diameter. Make sure to provide your Calabrese broccoli with full sun exposure from sowing or transplanting. Whether you choose to start them indoors or in containers, ensure your container provides a minimum of 5 gallons of space for optimal growth - the bigger, the better. Don't miss out on the joy of cultivating your own delicious Calabrese broccoli. These seeds are eager to flourish under your care and provide you with a bountiful harvest to enjoy in your favorite dishes.

Meet the Maker
Welcome to Blue Pumpkin Seed Co.! My lifelong love of gardening, especially pumpkins, led me to create this company.
We started as a small family business on Etsy in 2020, sharing our passion for heirloom seeds. Over time, I took charge to ensure this labor of love would flourish. I'm thrilled to now offer you a carefully curated selection of seeds directly.
The wonder of watching a seed grow continues to inspire me. As a fellow gardener, I share the same excitement and joy for gardening as our customers do.
