The delectable, tender stalks taste like a cross between asparagus and broccoli, only sweeter. Our favorite spring vegetable, this is a very easy-to-grow broccoli-like plant from China. We can't get enough of the crisp stems and shoots, which are about as thick as a large asparagus shoot, with a perfect snap and crunch. Nothing goes to waste with this crop; all parts of the plant are delicious. The tender blue-green, glossy leaves are similar to kale but better, and the broccoli-like inflorescences are nutty flavored and buttery soft. A must-have for those who long for broccoli but struggle to grow it, excellent for market gardeners as well. Yod Fah is a selection from Thailand that boasts good heat resistance. This vegetable is both a taste test winner and a nutritional superfood.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowing Tips:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use well-draining soil rich in organic matter. Choose a spot that receives 4-6 hours of sun daily. Keep soil moist, as plants do not tolerate drought. Apply mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Use a balanced fertilizer or compost tea every few weeks.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Baker Creek Heirloom Seed Co.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59511043719454,"sku":"OR132","price":3.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0999\/2280\/5022\/files\/chinese_broccoli_yod_fah.jpg?v=1782394623","url":"https:\/\/www.rareseeds.com\/products\/broccoli-chinese-yod-fah","provider":"RareSeeds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
