Introducing Brussel 'Hector', the new and compact vegetable for home gardeners looking to grow big on taste and small on space. This exceptional variety is celebrated for its sweet, nutty flavour that intensifies after a touch of frost. Its naturally compact size makes it perfect for small gardens or container growing, so even if space is limited, you can enjoy fresh, home-grown sprouts straight from your garden.
This resilient variety produces tightly packed sprouts on sturdy, upright stems reaching around 75cm tall. You’ll love how easy it is to care for, as it thrives in well-drained, nutrient-rich soil and performs beautifully in full sun or light shade.
Not only is ‘Hector’ a garden workhorse, but it’s also a visual delight with its upright form and glossy green leaves. Pollinator-friendly and disease-resistant, making it a top choice for gardeners seeking reliability and flavour from one delightful plant.
