Catskill Brussels Sprouts are an heirloom variety that dates back to 1941. Plants produce loads of 2″, medium-green sprouts on 2′ stalks. Great for eating fresh or freezing. Brassica oleracea var gemmifera. 100 days to maturity.

Catskill Brussels Sprouts are a traditional open-pollinated heirloom variety developed in the United States and introduced in the mid-20th century by the New York State Agricultural Experiment Station in Geneva, New York. Bred for improved uniformity and cold tolerance, this variety produces sturdy, upright plants with thick stalks and closely spaced, smooth, deep green sprouts that typically measure 1 to 1½ inches in diameter. Catskill Brussels Sprouts are known for their firm texture and mild, sweet, nutty flavor that becomes even better after exposure to frost, making them especially well suited for late fall and winter harvesting. Valued by home gardeners and market growers alike, this dependable variety offers good yields, excellent cold hardiness, and consistent quality, and remains a popular choice for roasting, steaming, or sautéing.

Brussels sprouts are easy-to-grow and won’t take up much space in your garden footprint. Like other cole crops, Brussels sprouts are a nitrogen hog, and require consitent watering and cool temperatures. Brussels sprouts are best planted mid-summer for a fall harvest. These tasty morsels grow on a stalk and can be easily picked once the knobby sprouts are one inch wide, harvesting from the bottom first. Why Brussels sprouts are vilfied is unknown, as they have a similar taste to that of cabbage and are delicious when roasted or carmelized. Keep pests away with insect netting, and watch temperatures so your crop does not bolt.
