Exceptionally mild, and sweeter than most other varieties, there isn't a hint of bitterness or peppery flavour. It's easy to see why it has been given the RHS Award of Garden Merit.

The buttons can be picked long into January or even February in optimal weather conditions.

'Brodie F1' will thrive in a sunny or semi-shaded position in well-cultivated, fertile, moist but well-draining soil.

Successive sowings will extend the cropping period. Supplied as a packet of 40 (approx.) seeds ready to sow indoors in a seed tray or outdoors directly into their cropping position. Grows to 70cm height x 45cm spread.
