Covina Broccoli

In Maine, 2018 was scorching and dry, while 2019 started cool and wet then jumped suddenly in temps and humidity. Both years were excellent tests of early-slot Covina’s summer stress tolerance. The dark green 6–8" heads with medium-fine bead stayed tight and compact without the bubbly lobing that its trial cohorts exhibited in the heat. No matter the weather, the raw and cooked quality remained fully sweet and nutty. Covina does double duty for solid reliable early fall harvests. White or yellow certified-organic coating.
