Autumn Harvest Brassica Plant Collection
From 2nd July 2025.
Product Description
There's still time to fill that harvest gap after the summer brassicas have finished but before the winter ones start cropping. By planting in July you will have ‘greens’ right through until October and November. Our aim was to create a collection that would give a wide variety of your favourite brassicas from autumn and into early winter, just as the nights begin to cool down and you want a hearty warming meal or ‘greens’ to go with your Sunday roast….this is one of our best-selling collections, so we think we got it right! There is something for everyone in this collection, whether you like a traditional cabbage, fancy a cauliflower cheese dish, the lovely tasting Calabrese or the chef’s favourite treat Kale. This is the perfect collection for beginner gardeners or plot holders who want a good mix of varieties and for making the most of your garden or allotment space.
The collection consist of 50 plants, 10 of each variety below.
Cabbage Marquess F1 - One of the most versatile providers of spring greens we have found! Easy to grow, reliable and extremely hardy.
Cauliflower Clapton - Heavy, dense, late summer and autumn caulis of superb quality. Very white heads which are full of flavour. Clubroot resistant.
Kale Dwarf Green Curled - These compact plants produce a welcome harvest of tightly curled leaves for many months in autumn and winter. Also known as 'borecole'.
Calabrese Monclano - This quality club-root resistant variety produces firm, domed heads with fine beads. It is high yielding and has good resistance to downy mildew which also gives it good standing ability.
Cabbage Red Flare - very early, sweet flavour, dark colour, short core, hard, tight heads – Red Flare has it all! Lovely served with apples and raisins.
