Notes

'NEW Curlesi' broccoli (Brassica oleracea 'NEW Curlesi') 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. Its flowers attract butterflies and bees. It also tolerates salt.

Pairs well with Genovese basil, Kent Beauty oregano, and Six Hills Giant nepeta.
