‘Broccoli Belstar F1 Hybrid’ is an awarding winning variety, holding an RHS AGM! You can understand why when you grow this yourself with ease, where the results are fantastic. You can expect fresh green perfectly domed beaded heads with firm crunchy stems, which can be cooked in all types of dishes, providing a magnificent flavour and long lasting shelf life! Sow broccoli seeds thinly in a well-prepared seed bed from April to June at a depth of 13mm (1/2") in rows 30cm (12") apart. Thin seedlings to 10cm (4") apart when large enough to handle. Transplant to their final positions around 5 weeks later when the seedlings have four or five leaves. Alternatively, sow in pots or a seed tray of good seed compost and cover with 6mm (1/4") of compost or vermiculite at a minimum of 15C (60F) until germination, which takes around 7 days. At first leaf stage, pick out into individual cell trays or 7.5cm (3") pots.Product Specifications: Position: Full sun, sun or semi shadeHeight: Up to 45cm (17.7in) when fully established.
