Calabrese 'Monclano' F1 produces tight domed heads on clear smooth stems and will produce plenty of side shoots after the central head is harvested. Monclano has been selected for super flavour, great yields and resistance to the dreaded clubroot and mildew. Sow several times through spring for successional harvests from August through to November.
Growing Tip:
Try growing calabrese with Nasturtiums to draw cabbage white butterflies away from your crop, and Mint to help deter flea beetles.
