68 day. A strikingly beautiful cauliflower. It is bright purple when raw and green when cooked. It has a more delicate texture than most cauliflower with looser florettes, and the head has a flatter shape than most of the white cauliflowers. Not only is it mild and delicious, it is really easy to grow. I always have problems getting cauliflower to form a nice head, but Violet of Sicily always forms a beautiful head without any effort.
Minimum of 100 seeds per packet.
PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS:

Plant Spacing: 12-24 inches
