Cauliflower - Brocoverde The Cauliflower Brocoverde, 'Brassica oleracea', is a very sweet tasting cauliflower that deserves a place in your garden. If you like cauliflower, then try this new, green variety. The taste is quite sweet, and Brocoverde takes the spring heat better than regular cauliflower, thus making spring plantings more successful in northern climates. Either raw or lightly steamed, you will love the flavor of Brocoverde. Late summer planting is recommended in hot summer areas or short spring areas. Keep soil moist and water deeply at least once a week.
