Broccoli Coronado Crown Hybrid
Grow this one anywhere, even in climates where other Broccolis have failed!
And not only is Coronado Crown productive, it's exceptionally adaptable to different climates and weather conditions. If you've tried broccoli without success before, give this one a go -- I think you'll be pleasantly surprised! It also has excellent holding ability after harvest, so you don't have to scramble to eat up all the broccoli at once!
A cool-weather crop, Broccoli can be grown in spring and fall everywhere, and even in winter in mild-weather areas. Sow seeds directly or transplant into the garden when they have 4 true leaves (about 8 weeks from germinating). Before planting, prepare the soil well, adding nitrogen if necessary and neutralizing heavily alkaline or acid soils. If planting in spring, plan to harvest before the temperature reaches 80 degrees; the heads will bolt in high heat. If planting in fall, start 10 to 12 weeks before first frost date. Space seeds or transplants 18 inches apart in rows 2 feet apart. Pkt is 100 seeds.
