The Delistem group of varieties was developed to produce edible stem-type brassicas. Can be grown as per normal calabrese but pinching out the first head at an early stage encourages side shoot development.

The closest product to the now discontinued Sticcoli, this variety produces long, tender stems, with good colour and sweet flavour. Matures after approximately 70-80 days.

Can be grown over a long season, often succeeding where other brassicas fail. Suitable for fresh sales and prepack, also once the main heads are removed, small sideshoots form, which are ideal for florets.
250-400 seeds per gram. Sow March-July, sowing rate 500g per acre. Germinates between 7 and 30°C. Plant out April-July at around 23 x 30cm, for harvesting June-December. Later maturity is possible in milder climates. Stated maturity times are from transplant to harvest.
