Broccoli seeds for planting in a diverse heirloom collection made for cool-season success. This 5-variety set blends classic green heading broccoli with a purple sprouting type and a raab type, so you can grow more than one "kind of broccoli" in the same garden.

Designed for home gardeners who want dependable harvests and real kitchen value, this collection supports fresh eating, seasonal cooking, and practical family gardening. The mix of colors and textures adds a little novelty at the table (Romanesco spirals and purple shoots are often kid-approved) while still delivering the familiar broccoli you want for everyday meals.

Planting guidance: Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before your last frost, or direct sow outdoors in early spring once soil reaches about 60F. Transplant to full sun and rich, well-drained soil, spacing plants 18-24 inches apart. Broccoli grows best in cool temperatures (about 55-75F) and performs well in USDA Zones 3-10. Most heading types mature in about 60-90 days; raab types can be harvested earlier for tender shoots, and sprouting types continue producing side shoots after the main head is cut. Easy-to-follow growing instructions are included.

Included varieties and types: Calabrese Broccoli (Brassica oleracea var. italica), Waltham 29 Broccoli (Brassica oleracea var. italica), Purple Sprouting Broccoli (Brassica oleracea var. italica), Romanesco Broccoflower (Brassica oleracea var. botrytis), and San Marzano Raab (Brassica rapa). This collection covers heading broccoli, sprouting broccoli, and broccoli raab (rapini) styles for broader harvest options.

Harvest fresh broccoli for roasting, steaming, stir-fries, and salads, or preserve your crop by blanching and freezing for later meals. Survival Garden Seeds provides open-pollinated, heirloom, non-GMO, untreated seeds selected for reliability and garden performance, helping you grow with confidence season after season.
