BREEDERS AND GROWERS 13 BROCCOLI Sprouting or Italian type *DE CICCO For spring and summer harvest in the South and East. Plant medium large, producing a large center head, generally of good texture and color, followed by a good yield of shoots. Under some conditions, the heads may show lighter colored areas due to variable age of the developing buds. * GRAND CENTRAL (Ssgroju) An Asgrow development maturing a little earlier than Medium and notable for its heavy yield of large center heads. Plant tall and vigorous, producing a large head of fine color and texture, followed by a good crop of shoots which develop rather slowly. Because of the vigorous plant growth, an adequate supply of boron in the soil is needed to prevent hollow stem. Particularly adapted for fall harvest in the south Atlantic states. * K & V A second early variety for late spring, summer and early fall harvest. The large center head is divided into segments which are readily separated, making it easy to handle in freezing operations. Plant tall, upright; head of good texture, color and quality. * LATE For late winter and spring harvest in the Southwest. Plant large, vigorous, with a large solid center head of good texture, color and quality. Side shoots develop slowly. Should not be planted in the Grand Central : an Asgrow introduction with large main head * Suitable for quick Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Associated Seed Growers, Inc; Henry G.
