BROCCOLI Sprouting or Italian type Brassica oleracea var. italica Days EARLY (Calabrese) 70 The standard variety for home or market gardens and for processing; widely adapted, but not for California. FREEZERS' 75 Developed at our Pacific Coast breeding station to meet a need of the quick- freezing industry. Many individual sprouts with small heads are formed, but are not concentrated into a main head, thus allowing a better growth for their special purpose and facilitating picking and packing. LATE 150 A very late strain for spring harvesting on the Pacific Coast. Produces large central head but few side shoots. MEDIUM 90 Similar to our early strain, but plants are larger and more vigorous, produc- ing side shoots over a longer period; about 20 days later in maturity and therefore less liable to bolt in hot weather areas.
