Description
Verona Tardivo is a late-season heritage cauliflower from the Verona region. Cold-resistant and designed for winter harvesting. Large, dense heads with a sweet mild flavour that improves after frost. Exactly the kind of crop that Irish winters suit perfectly.
Sow in spring, transplant in early summer, harvest from November through to February. A proper winter vegetable for when most of the garden has gone quiet.
Cauliflower ‘Verona Tardivo’ (V25) is a unique, cold-resistant heritage variety cultivated exclusively in and around Verona. This late season cauliflower forms large, cream-coloured heads of excellent quality, ready for harvest in the depths of winter through early spring. Its good resistance to cold makes it a reliable and valuable crop for extending the fresh harvest season. This packet contains approximately 6000 seeds.
🌱 Sow May-end Jul in a seedbed or modules for transplanting.
☀️ Prefers full sun. A bright, open site is essential.
💧 Water consistently. Critical during head formation for solid, well-developed curds.
📏 Produces large, creamy heads. Exceptionally cold tolerant for winter harvests.
