What broccoli does best for you?

b54red · February 13, 2018

My favorite variety of broccoli was Coronado Crown but it seems that they no longer produce that hybrid variety or either it is out of stock nearly everywhere. I have found another that I like nearly as well and that is Gypsy. It produces large heads that are tight with a fairly small bead. It also produces decent side shoots especially in the spring. I am not a fan of loose or large beaded varieties and am constantly looking for another Coronado Crown which produced huge heads that were extremely tight and small beaded and they also held well in the field.
