Organic Belstar Broccoli

Organic Belstar Broccoli

Deep green heads with tightly packed florets

We love this captivating heirloom variety. It thrives in temperate climates. Its growth cycle spans 75-90 days, producing striking deep green heads composed of tightly packed florets. With a slightly sweet and earthy taste, its flavor profile is mild yet distinct, further enhanced after a light steaming or sautéing. Rich in nutrients, it's a culinary delight. 

Originating from meticulous cultivation, this plant is primed for success. Flourishing in well-draining soil and partial sunlight, it adapts seamlessly to a variety of environments, from backyard plots to raised beds.

Harvesting your Belstar Broccoli is a breeze. Once the central head reaches its full size, simply cut it off with a clean, sharp knife, leaving a few inches of stem attached. This encourages the growth of smaller side shoots, ensuring a prolonged harvest.

Elevate your gardening experience and culinary creations with the Belstar Broccoli Certified Organic Vegetable Start. Witness the transformation from start to harvest and savor the satisfaction of homegrown, nutrient-rich broccoli on your plate.

USDA hardiness zones: 3 - 10

 

Shipping in 2.75” pots, we exclusively opt for seedlings that have reached the pinnacle of their maturity, ensuring a bountiful harvest in your garden. Employing organic techniques, our seedlings are cultivated without chemicals or pesticides.
