Product Description
"Cima di rapa 40," also known as Cima di Rapa Quarantina, is a variety of turnip tops (broccoli raab) that is ready to harvest about 40 days after sowing. It is a fast-growing, early-maturing plant that produces tender, edible florets and leaves. Late variety, upright plant with green, small and longed leaves.
- Edible Leaves: The leaves are also edible and can be used like other greens.
- Growing Conditions: Cima di rapa 40 thrives in full sun and requires consistent watering, especially during hot weather, to prevent bolting. It is a good option for container growing.
- Harvesting: The plants are harvested when the florets are ready, similar to how you would harvest sprouting broccoli. Careful harvesting, leaving some lower leaves, can encourage re-sprouting.
