Purple Magic, the first purple stem, purple-headed broccoli in the world. The large, dome-shaped heads weigh in at about ½ a kilo each. Purple Magic is very high in anthocyanin (a plant-based chemical called a flavonoid) and nutritious, as well as being sweeter than green broccoli.

Cultural practices : Can be started indoors four to five weeks before the last frost or sown directly in the garden at the beginning of May.
Soil : The soil should be loose and hold moisture well. Uses the same type of soil, as cabbage but requires more water because of its rapid development.
Spacing : When transplanting or clearing, leave 30 cm to 45 cm between the plants and 45 cm to 60 cm between the rows, depending on the chosen types.
Growing tips : Crop rotation is essential to prevent disease.
Harvest : The heads should be firm and tight. At this point, cut down on the stalk to encourage side shoots of smaller heads for an extended harvest.
