1. Sow Indoors: Start seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost. Use a seed-starting mix and sow the seeds about 1/4 inch deep. Keep the soil moist and maintain a temperature of 65–70°F (18–21°C). Germination usually takes 7–14 days.

2. Transplant: When the seedlings have several sets of leaves and the danger of frost has passed, harden them off and transplant them outdoors. Space plants about 18–24 inches apart.

3. Sunlight and Care: Cauliflower prefers full sun and well-drained, fertile soil. Water regularly, keeping the soil consistently moist, but avoid waterlogging. Mulch around the plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds.

4. Growing Tips: Cauliflower ‘Di Sicilia Violetto’ is a unique, purple-flowered variety. It requires cool weather to form the heads, so it’s best to plant in spring or fall.

This variety is known for its rich color, mild flavor, and adaptability in the garden.
