Brussels Sprouts Seeds - Catskill

Brassica oleracea HEIRLOOM. This highly productive dwarf variety was introduced in 1941 by Arthur White of Arkport, NY. It has become a prized favorite for its large, 2" diameter, super-flavorful sprouts produced on compact, sturdy plants.  For Southern gardeners, Catskill brussels sprouts do best when started indoors in mid-late summer, then transplanted out as temperatures cool off in early fall. Northern growers can also start them in early spring. They will need full sun and well-drained, fertile soil amended with plenty of compost. Sprouts begin maturing about 80 days after transplanting. 1.75 gram packet contains about 465 seeds.
