The “Waltham 29” is a lovely and adaptable broccoli that can be successfully planted in both spring and fall. Developed by the University of Massachusetts in the 1950’s. A delicious tasting broccoli with a pleasing dark green – sometimes even bluish – color.
How to plant:
Space rows of broccoli 3 feet apart. (Closer spacing yields smaller main heads but more secondary heads.)
Water well!
Crowns may take into fall depending on high temperatures so be patient!
