Catch the eye with vibrant purple spears that thrive through summer and autumn, as the Thompson and Morgan Broccoli Sprouting Summer Purple Seeds brings robust harvests to your garden without the need for winter chilling. Specially bred for summer cropping, this variety stands up to heat, producing bountiful yields from July to November when picked regularly. With easy sowing and care, you'll enjoy reliable growth in borders, vegetable pots, or kitchen gardens, making it a rewarding choice for both new and experienced growers. Sow sprouting broccoli seeds in a well-prepared seed bed from March to June at a depth of 13mm and spaced 30cm apart. Transplant to their final positions around five weeks later, when the seedlings have four or five leaves. When growing purple sprouting broccoli, choose a sheltered position in firm, rich, fertile, well-drained soil in full sun. Prepare the soil in early spring by adding plenty of well-rotted farmyard manure to the soil to improve its structure and fertility. Plant purple sprouting broccoli deeply for stability at a distance of 60cm apart, and cover with a protective netting or fleece to prevent attack from birds and insects. Water the plants thoroughly after planting. Product Specifications: Position: Full sun. Height: Up to 90cm when fully established. Spread: Up to 60cm when fully established.
