Notes
'NEW Unicorn' broccoli (Brassica oleracea 'NEW Unicorn') 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. Bees and butterflies visit the blooms, and the plant tolerates salt.
Pairs well with Genovese basil, Kent Beauty oregano, and Jimmy Nardello pepper.
