Jade Cross Hybrid Brussels Sprout

‘Jade Cross’ is a dependable hybrid Brussels sprout prized for its heavy yields, uniform sprouts, and sweet, delicate flavor. Medium-sized plants produce firm, glossy, deep green sprouts that develop closely along the stalk, offering a tender texture and reliable garden performance.

Start ‘Jade Cross’ indoors about ¼ to ½ inch deep for transplanting. Space plants 18 to 24 inches apart and grow in full sun. Plants typically reach 24 to 30 inches tall and perform best in fertile, well-drained soil with consistent moisture.

Ready to harvest in about 100 days, begin picking the 1½-inch sprouts once they are firm and well developed, starting near the bottom of the stalk and working upward as the remaining sprouts mature. The plants hold well through challenging weather, giving gardeners added flexibility at harvest time.

Sweet, tender, and flavorful, ‘Jade Cross’ is excellent for roasting, sautéing, steaming, and other everyday cooking.
