Title: Brussel Sprouts
Post by: telboy on February 05, 2015, 12:10:47
Could anyone suggest a sprout variety that does not grow too tall? Some thing like Peer Gynt that was a great variety some years ago.
A local 'Hilliers' is selling "the new Peer Gynt" but there are is no mention of its attained hight.
Many thanks.

There's one called early half tall. September crop I think & about half the size of usual plants.

I am growing "Bridget" which is very similar to the old Peer Gynt , I started picking October and still going strong.
