About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
An open pollinated classic with particularly firm, tightly packed sprouts that hardly ever burst open, even in wet weather. The plant stays nicely upright and gives you evenly sized sprouts for late autumn and early winter. A reliable choice for the home garden without hybrid seed.
Mild and pleasantly aromatic, with a delicate sweetness after cool nights. Stays nicely firm to the bite when cooked.
