Early Dividend Broccoli
Early Dividend provides impressive yields with good dark green color and outstanding side shoot development after the main head is cut.
Broccoli prefers rich, moist, well drained soil with lots of organic matter.
Harvest the heads when buds are tight, just before they open into yellow flowers.
Semi-domed heads with medium bead are vitamin rich and flavorful.
Soil PH should be very slightly acid to neutral.
The Broccoli Early Dividend, 'Brassica oleracea', is an early variety that bears medium size heads, then quickly produces 3 to 4 inch secondary heads.
