Johnny's Selected Seeds' Broccoli Planting Program is designed to take the guesswork out of succession planting for standard heading broccoli varieties, allowing you to easily extend your harvest throughout the growing season. Succession-plant broccoli varieties in this recommended sequence for a steady supply of broccoli from earliest spring through late-fall in cooler regions, and into winter-harvest in more temperate growing zones.
