90–100 days. Touted as the world's first purple-stemmed broccoli, this AAS award winner is magical, indeed! Plants produce sizeable dome-shaped heads that can weigh about 1 pound each. This cool-season crop grows upright to 30 inches and up to 20 inches wide with tight, uniform crowns and bright beads. An excellent easy-to-grow addition to any garden that is known to be sweeter and more tender than traditional green broccoli.
