'Lavender' cauliflower (Brassica oleracea 'Lavender') is a vegetable for the food garden, 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 matures in 70 days and is salt tolerant.
Pairs well with Potato, Genovese basil, and Everbearing strawberry.
