Umuthi Brussel Sprouts (Long Island) Seeds grow sturdy, compact plants that set loads of tight, flavourful sprouts along tall stalks. Best in cool weather, they sweeten after a light frost and reward patient growers with a nutrient-dense, homegrown staple. Suited to full sun and rich, well-drained soil, with steady moisture for firm, well-formed heads.
♡ Why we love it: A classic heirloom that's reliable in autumn gardens and tastes even better after cold snaps. Sprouts roast, sauté and steam beautifully, with a gently nutty bite.
Size: 200 Seeds.
