Long Island Improved Brussels Sprout Seeds

Long Island Improved Brussels Sprout Seeds

These delightfully flavoured leafy parcels grow to about 4cm each and each plant produces high numbers of fruit. Growing to about 80cm high, they are also an attractive plant in any garden.

Sow 4-6 seeds per punnet and when they have grown 6 leaves, easily plant into ground 50-75cm apart. That’s it!

Remember to remove the lower leaves when the sprouts start growing and pick when they are maturing. Protect from the white moth (caterpillars).

Health & Culinary Notes

• More vitamin C than oranges and high in a range of nutrients.
• An old favourite that can simply be steamed or roasted in a pan to caramelise or oven be indulgent and fry with bacon and butter.
