Notes
'Happy Rich' broccoli (Brassica oleracea 'Happy Rich') is a vegetable for food gardens, borders, and pollinator gardens. 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 grown for summer broccoli production, and it draws butterflies and bees.
Pairs well with Bouquet dill, Green Zebra tomato, and Genovese basil.
