Broccoletti Seedling Punnet

Broccoletti is a fast-growing and productive edible green vegetable, valued for its tender stems, small florets and mild, sweet broccoli flavour. Popular in home vegetable gardens, it’s easy to grow and rewards gardeners with repeated harvests over a long season.

Unlike traditional broccoli, broccoletti produces multiple side shoots rather than one large head. This allows for continuous picking, making it ideal for stir-fries, steaming, roasting and pasta dishes. Both the stems and leaves are edible and packed with flavour.

Best grown in full sun to part shade, broccoletti thrives in cooler growing conditions with regular watering and well-drained soil. Suitable for garden beds, raised beds and large containers, it’s an excellent choice for productive, space-efficient gardening.
