Item Package Quantity:100 Aspabroc is the gourmet treat known as Broccolini in the supermarkets. It has small heads with delicious and tender stems. No stem peeling necessary! It is nutrient dense and loved by young and old alike. The plants have a very small central head, after it is cut they produce baby size side shoots for 4 weeks.This gourmet variety is delicious from top to bottom, with really exceptional flavor and texture. But what you may appreciate just as much, as a gardener, is its yields. Once you harvest the central crown (which you can do at about 50 days it will be small but scrumptious!), about 5 or 6 side-shoots will appear. A little more than a week later, these can be harvested as well, so that new ones grow. The process repeats for more than a month! That's an amazing harvest from every plant, and the later side-shoots are just as delectable as the first ones.Unlike traditional broccoli, Aspabroc has tender stems all the way to the ground, with small, delicious leaves. Occasionally a rogue yellow flower will set, especially if you are growing this broccolini in late spring in a warm climate. Go ahead and eat the flower, too -- you'll be surprised at how good it is! And the stems are slender and smooth, so you need never peel or chop them.

Exactly 50 seeds in a clear plastic pouch marked brocoli.
Supposed to be brocolini, got broccoli when it grew..about 1/4 of the seeds germinated.

great taste & producer, actually too much, could not keep up with the picking & eating, but way late
great taste and producer, actually too much producer, could not keep up with the picking and eating of only 5 plants. did not produce until late winter (February- April). Same thing this year plants got big but have not yet produced. I live in Oregon.

Poor service
Poor germination rate. Refund approved without resolution 3 weeks later. I would find another source.

Did not Sprout for me
None of the broccolini seeds sprouted... no instructions were enclosed so I planted them as I plant regularly broccoli in my area. Disappointed. There was a little packet of bonus tomato seeds and I have to small seedlings from it. We will see how they go it was broccolini I wanted

Seeds Sprouted Well in Fall Garden
The packaging leaved a little to be desired, but the seeds are of good quality and they sprouted well. As for taste, I'll have to update my review when the broccolini is ready to harvest.

Disappointed
Very poor germination rate. Maybe one in 8 came up. Same results for the ones I have to a semi professional grower friend.
