Fennel Plant Romanesco
Availability: In stock
Fennel 'Romanesco' is a striking and flavourful vegetable variety, with a crisp texture, sweet flavour and attractive bulbous stems. This productive variety forms smooth, rounded ivory-white bulbs topped with delicate, feathery green foliage that adds soft texture and ornamental appeal to the vegetable garden. Harvested from summer into autumn, the bulbs are perfect for roasting, grilling and salads, while the aromatic foliage can also be used fresh as a herb.
Thriving in fertile, moist, well-drained soil in a sunny position, Fennel 'Romanesco' benefits from regular watering to prevent bulbs from becoming tough or bolting in hot weather. Keep the soil consistently moist and earth up around the bulbs to maintain their pale colour and tenderness. A superb choice for gardeners seeking both ornamental beauty and delicious homegrown produce.
