Notes
'Attis' brussels sprout (Brassica oleracea 'Attis') is a vegetable for food gardens, borders, and pollinator gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. It is one of the more cold-hardy crops and can keep growing through light freezes with some winter protection. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. The tall stalks resist lodging, and the flowers attract butterflies and bees.
Pairs well with Amish Paste tomato, Celeriac, Lemon balm, and Everbearing strawberry.
