Big Stem Chinese Broccoli seeds

SKU: 8233038

Big Stem Chinese Broccoli, closely kin to European cabbage, found its way into China in ancient times, swiftly becoming an integral part of local cuisine. Displaying large, dark green leaves and thick stems, this variety is well-suited for cultivation throughout various seasons. As an open-pollinated type, it boasts a deep green color, delightful flavor, and notably large stalks that offer crispness, making them ideal for slicing. The stems exhibit resilience to cold conditions and show a slow tendency to bolt, contributing to their robust and enduring nature.
