Romanesco is a striking variety with green, spire-like florets that resemble a natural work of art. Its firmer texture and delicate, nutty flavor make it a favorite for those seeking a gourmet touch. A great alternative to traditional cauliflower, Romanesco thrives in full sun to ensure optimal growth and prevent leaf rot.
