Notes
'Paxton' cauliflower (Brassica oleracea 'Paxton') is a vegetable for the food garden, 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 matures in 67 days and has an erect habit. Bees and butterflies visit the spring and summer blooms.
Pairs well with Potato, Berggarten sage, Everbearing strawberry, and Lemon balm.
