Broccoli (Sprouting) Seeds - Summer Purple

Broccoli (Sprouting) Seeds 'Summer Purple' is a British broccoli variety that has been specially bred for summer and autumn cropping seasons. This means that this type of broccoli does not require a winter season of cold weather to be able to grow a mass of delicious spears!

The sturdy stems can grow up to 90cm tall and the plants will produce high yields and bumper crops with regular picking. If you decide to sow successionally, you can harvest your broccoli from July to October. The scrumptious dark-purple headed florets taste their best when steamed, with an excellent sweet and earthy flavour coming through. This is a must-have and flavoursome addition to many home-cooked dishes, including stir-fries or Sunday roasts to pot pies and vegetable soups.

Sowing Information

Sow into a prepared seedbed, in rows at a depth of 1cm ( 1?2") and 30cm (12") between rows. Germination 7-14 days. Transfer into final positions approximately 6 weeks from sowing. Alternatively, sow in a propagator and cover with a sprinkling of vermiculite. At a temperature of 21°C (70°F). Transfer into 7.5cm (3") pots and grow on. Acclimatise to outdoor conditions before planting out. Apply lime to acid soils to reduce the risk of clubroot.

Live Plants

Suttons strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.

Non Standard Deliveries

Unfortunately like many companies in our industry we are currently only able to supply orders to UK based customers, excluding those in Northern Ireland. We are committed to finding a way that we can resume or normal services again as soon as possible. Please accept our apologies for any inconvience caused.

Prices include VAT where applicable.

We reserve the right to contact you and advise an additional charge where necessary and are happy to quote for carriage of specific products to more remote areas. Some items may not be available to all areas.

We reserve the right to revise any carriage charges in the event of carrier price increase or other unforeseen circumstances. We will always advise of the carriage charge before payment is taken.

All Suttons products should reach you in perfect condition, just as they left us. If you are dissatisfied in any way with their condition on arrival, please let us know within 14 days. We are only liable for the cost of the goods as quoted on the website plus the cost of delivery if the goods are faulty.
