I find cauli doesn't have much taste of it's own... especially if you serve it in a sauce (don't mention the cheese!!) and the green look (it goes green with cooking) makes you think of broccoli...  :-\

All year round grew well for me, in my garden. 

Had a lovely flavour - much better than supermarket stuff

the coloured ones are fun (I often grow graffiti which is purple) and I reckon the birds don't see the red/purple ones quite the same so that might be a plus point - depends if you prefer summer, autumn or winter caulis - 'all year round' for me as well as one of the best
