Calabrese F1 Delistem Kale (VCA342)
Brassica oleracea var. italica
This product is only available in an untreated format.
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.
Technically a sprouting kale, this variety produces dark green spears on edible stems. The stems can be marketed with or without the side leaves, and both can be eaten. Pinching out the first head at an early stage encourages the side shoots to develop. Maturing after approximately 90-100 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.
