Purple Sprouting Broccoli Seedling

Cold-Hardy • Purple Shoots • Extended Harvest

Purple Sprouting Broccoli is a beautiful cool-season broccoli grown for its slender purple florets and tender shoots rather than one large central head. Once established, plants can produce multiple side shoots, giving you repeated harvests throughout the cool season.

Key Features

Everyday & Traditional Uses

Enjoy the tender shoots and florets steamed, roasted, sautéed, grilled, or added to stir-fries, pasta, soups, and side dishes. The young leaves can also be cooked and eaten similarly to other brassica greens.

Fall & Cold Tolerance

Purple Sprouting Broccoli is cold-hardy and performs best in cool weather. Established plants can tolerate frost, and cool temperatures are an important part of its growing season. Severe or prolonged freezes may still require protection.

Quick Growing Tips

Grow in full sun with fertile, well-draining soil and consistent moisture. Give plants adequate space to mature. Once shoots begin forming, harvest regularly to encourage continued side-shoot production.
