Hello again, I am growing some purple sprouting broccoli for the first time and 2 of the plants are producing flowers and purple seed heads. Is this ok or should I remove them. Thanks Cecelia

Agree, the flowers are what we're suppose to eat, actually the buds just before they open. Blanche them in boiling water and some melted butter, garlic/butter. yum!

that sounds like the part you are meant to eat. the flower heads are purple and will open out yellow. pick and eat them now. enjoy.
