Notes
'Ruby Perfection 177' broccoli (Brassica oleracea 'Ruby Perfection 177') 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. Plants reach maturity in 85 days, and the flowers attract bees and butterflies.
Pairs well with Berggarten sage, Everbearing strawberry, and Basil.
