Castle Dome Hybrid Broccoli

‘Castle Dome’ is an early-maturing hybrid broccoli prized for its vigorous growth, dependable production, and attractive medium-green crowns. Compact plants produce high-domed heads with tight, small beads and perform reliably through both warmer and cooler conditions, making this variety a versatile choice for different growing seasons.

Start ‘Castle Dome’ indoors about ½ inch deep for transplanting. Space plants 5 to 10 inches apart and grow in full sun. Plants typically reach 20 to 24 inches tall and perform best in fertile, well-drained soil with consistent moisture.

Ready to harvest in about 75 days from transplanting, cut the main crown once it reaches the desired size and the beads are still tight. After the central head is removed, continue checking plants for smaller side shoots that can provide additional harvests. The mature heads also hold well in the garden, giving you a little more flexibility at harvest time.

Tender, flavorful, and productive, ‘Castle Dome’ is excellent for fresh eating, steaming, roasting, sautéing, and everyday cooking.
