If you’ve had trouble growing cauliflower, try this amazing variety! It can be harvested either at the “baby head” size or when fully mature at 10 inches. Brilliant white, self-blanching heads are covered by large, abundant wrapper leaves that protect them from sun, heat, and cold. These are easy to grow in both the north and south. It keeps well in the field and is heavy bearing, so pick as needed and prepare for a large harvest. It does well in wet clay soil, too.
