Millennium resembles Emerald Crown but is later maturing with a heavier head. It holds longer in the field then other varieties. Anyone who grows broccoli should give Millennium a try both spring, and fall harvest slots.

From the Puglia region of Italy comes a special strain of rapini known as Leccese (from the town Lecce) that has extra large heads in addition to voluminous glossy green leaves. We offer this seed from Italy and call it “Rapini Grande” for fall crops, when the maturity will be around 90 days from seed. (Early Rapini is better for spring.) For those unfamiliar with Rapini, or broccoli raab, it is really gown for the leaf, not the head, and is sold bunched before the flower buds open on the heads, cut with as many leaves as possible.
