Notes
Romanesco Tardivo, aka Fractal Broccoli. Seeds from Pagano seed company. Transplanted on 02 June 2013. 27 July 2013 – one plant still hanging in – will start more seeds inside and see if I can get them to survive. Brassicaceae are delicate little things of the plant world, apparently.

Experimental: this feature is new and might be flaky. These dates are estimates from 25 km weather-model data, not readings from a station at your garden, so a cold spot can be colder. They may be wrong, so check your national weather service and ask local growers before relying on them.
