De Cicco broccoli is a traditional Italian variety, very early and tender, with excellent flavor. Its main flower head is followed by an abundance of lateral shoots, irregularly, over a long period, making it much more productive and practical in our gardens than commercial varieties. Its leaves are also edible and very tasty. Around 50 days from transplanting for the first harvest, which continues for a month.
