Broccoli and Cauliflower Update



We've had lovely rains and sunny days which has encouraged everything in the garden to wake up.  The broccoli plants are still small, but a small flower head has appeared.  I will be interested to see if this plant will thrive and produce a large central flower head.

The cauliflower plant is also small but the flower head has appeared.  Only time will tell the what type of harvest these plants will produce.

    These pictures look like you are off to a great start in your garden. I haven't grown broccoli for a couple of years but your pictures are tempting me to rethink that decision. Thanks for the post, Robin in SoCal

    I'm hoping I didn't start too early. According to some of the broccoli postings, this little broccoli flower head might be what is known as a button. It may never grow up to be a big hulking broccoli head... :( I'll post the outcome when it becomes evident.
