Green - gray and coarse-grained vegetable. It's very appreciated for its balanced content of nutrients. It belongs to the cruciferous vegetables family. This plant is tipical of Italy, especially of Sicily, Campania and Apulia, but you also can find it in France and Spain. This is a pretty adaptable plant, but its ideal climate is the hot-tempered one. Its collection begin during fall but you can find the broccoli during winter at market, because the plant continues to produce fruits, even after is being cut.
