Brussels Sprouts - Catskill (150 seeds)

Brussels Sprouts - Catskill

Brussels Sprouts 'Catskill' is a dependable heritage variety and a reliable producer for the home vegetable garden. Semi-dwarf in habit, it delivers heavy yields of firm, dark green sprouts measuring 3–5 cm with a rich, nutty flavour that sweetens noticeably after the first frost. The sprouts hold their shape and flavour well whether cooked, roasted, or eaten fresh, making it a practical and rewarding choice for autumn and winter harvesting.

Well suited to the cooler months and performing consistently in New Zealand conditions, 'Catskill' is a straightforward variety to grow that rewards growers with a generous and sustained harvest over several weeks. Picking begins from the bottom of the stalk upward as sprouts reach a good size.
