  • RHS Recommended: Award of Garden Merit winner
  • Dense, uniform heads with sideshoots
  • Slow to bolt and packed with nutrients

Calabrese ‘Marathon’ F1 is a top-quality variety, renowned for its performance, flavour, and reliability. Producing medium-sized, dense heads of fine turquoise beads, it thrives in full sun and performs well in both heavy and light soils.

Ready around 13 weeks after sowing, this versatile crop can be grown in spring for summer harvests or in summer for autumn cutting. After removing the central head, plants continue to produce plenty of tasty sideshoots, extending the picking season.

A true superfood, ‘Marathon’ is rich in vitamins, iron, and essential micronutrients. Suitable for freezing, it provides a healthy store of homegrown goodness to enjoy throughout winter and beyond.
