Brassica oleracea
Goliath is an heirloom open pollinated heading broccoli which has an extended harvest of large central heads followed by many side shoots to pick well into the autumn. It has excellent flavour and works well for the home gardener. Sow seeds indoors 6 weeks before last frost. Seeds will germinate in 3-10 days. Transplant outdoors 24” apart firming down the soil around the seedling. Broccoli prefers full sun, cool temperatures, rich soil and a regular supply of water. If your soil is acidic, add lime.
