Waltham 29 Broccoli

Organic Non-GMO Waltham 29 Broccoli - A great variety for the home garden or direct markets that favor bunched side shoots. A standard for open-pollinated broccoli with a good size main dome and lots of side shoots. Sturdy 20” plants support 5-6” dark blue-green heads with medium to large beads and long stalks (hard to find with modern hybrids.) Developed to withstand increasing cold of fall maturity. Spring plantings do well but heads are smaller in size and sensitive to intense summer heat. (Brassica italica) Days to maturity: 80-85 days
