Organic Broccoli - Purple Peacock *NEW*

£3.00 Coming Soon
Packet size: ~100 seeds

 GROWN IN SCOTLAND by Seeds of Scotland


Brassica oleracea


Purple Peacock is something totally new, bred from a cross-pollination between two colourful kales and a big green broccoli, the result is a kaleidoscope of colour and texture with anything from deep purple to fluorescent pink, sprouting broccoli and kale leaves. The flavour is incredibly sweet, excellent raw or cooked. 

We are particularly excited about the addition of this beautiful, diverse and multi-use vegetable to our catalogue. We like to harvest the relatively small central head and allow the plants to send up lots of shoots which can be harvested just like sprouting broccoli over a long period, before eating the leaves like kale.  

Bred by Frank Morton of Wild Garden Seeds.
