Notes

'Clementine' cauliflower (Brassica oleracea 'Clementine') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and borders. It is typically grown as an annual. It ranks among the more cold-hardy crops, and with some winter protection it keeps growing through light freezes. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It is ready to harvest in 55 days. Bees and butterflies visit the flowers.

Pairs well with Genovese basil, Bouquet dill, and Berggarten sage.
