Weird growing brassica

Anyone seen a brassica growing like this?
My tag says speedy cauliflower, must be a rogue seed but I have 2 of them, never seen anything like it ;D

That's weird. Summer caulis can get a pink colour to them but that's an odd shape too.

Looks like a 'sport' or mutant!!
Save some seed and see if it repeats, could have a winner on your hands!

it's either Romanesco or a new twelve week summer growing p/s called Rudolp then was offered by T & M earlier this year

Whatever it is, it's probably a stray seed in a packet.
