Di Cicco Broccoli
Product Details
Enjoy a harvest of delicious, homegrown broccoli with this 4-pack of Di Cicco Broccoli starter plants! Di Cicco Broccoli is a beloved Italian heirloom known for producing a steady harvest of tender, blue-green florets over an extended season. While its central head is modest in size, harvesting will encourage the growth of additional shoots. Its upright habit, lush foliage, and reliable performance make it an excellent choice for home gardeners looking to maximize production from a single plant. Sweet, tender, and exceptionally productive, Di Cicco is perfect for fresh eating, steaming, roasting, and freezing.
Di Cicco Broccoli heads are generally 3-4 inches across. Their flavor is mild, sweet, and slightly earthy with excellent tenderness, especially after cool weather.
While not propagated via tissue culture, this plant still meets MicroStarts' high quality standards.
