Notes
'Gladius' brussels sprout (Brassica oleracea 'Gladius') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and borders. It is typically grown as an annual. Few crops handle cold as well, and with a little winter protection it grows on through light freezes. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It grows upright and is ready to pick in 98 days.
Pairs well with Ancho pepper, Dill, and Holy basil.
