Franchi Early Romanesco Cauliflower is a striking Italian heirloom variety renowned for its vivid lime-green colour and naturally intricate spiral florets. Known in Italy as “Cavolfiore Romanesco Precoce,” this unique vegetable combines the delicate texture of cauliflower with the mild, slightly nutty sweetness of broccoli, making it both visually distinctive and exceptionally versatile in the kitchen.
Selected by Franchi Sementi, Italy’s historic seed house established in 1783, this premium Romanesco variety is prized for its early maturity, reliable growth and impressive geometric heads. The compact florets develop into beautifully symmetrical crowns with crisp texture and fresh, refined flavour, ideal for roasting, steaming, grilling or serving raw in salads and antipasti.
