Cauliflower 'Violet Queen'

Violet Queen likes a position of full sun and remember to water moderately. Violet Queen is generally regarded as a hardy plant, so it can be safe to leave outdoors for the majority of winter (although if in doubt, using a row cover is often a good idea). Violet Queen needs a soil ph of 6.5 to 7.0 (weakly acidic soil - neutral soil).

Aim to sow 0.58 inches (1.5 cm) deep and try to ensure a gap of at least 3.12 inches (8.0 cm). For optimal germination, soil temperature should be a minimum of 24°C / 75°F.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Violet Queen about 14 days before your last frost date.

Violet Queen is hardy, so ensure you wait until all danger of frost has passed in your area before considering planting outside.
