Broccoli White Sprouting White Eye Seeds

[200–220 days] A traditional favourite among UK gardeners, White Sprouting Broccoli ‘White Eye’ is a reliable late-winter to early-spring cropper. This hardy variety produces tender, creamy-white spears that are full of flavour—sweet, nutty, and perfect for steaming, sautéing or roasting.

Ideal for overwintering, White Eye is sown in spring or early summer and harvested when few other crops are available. It performs well in cooler climates and handles frosty conditions with ease. The plants develop strong stems and multiple productive shoots once the central crown is removed, ensuring a generous and extended harvest.

A great choice for gardeners wanting to fill the hunger gap with something both nutritious and satisfying. High in vitamins and a great alternative to the more common purple-sprouting types.

Height: 90cm (36"). Spread: 60cm (24").

Common Questions

When do I sow White Sprouting Broccoli White Eye? Sow from late March through June for harvesting the following February to April.

How do I encourage more side shoots? Remove the main head when it's about 2–3 inches long—this encourages lots of side shoot production.

Does it need protection over winter? White Eye is very hardy, but in exposed areas a fleece or cloche can help shield young plants from harsh winds.
