Broccoli

Do you have a source for the material you added? I have removed it meantime. --John (talk) 10:52, 12 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I do:

Here are two references, one bilingual, one in English

http://www.sito.regione.campania.it/agricoltura/Tipici/tradizionali/broccolo_friariello.html http://www.gardenbetty.com/2012/04/broccoli-leaves-are-edible/

Now for me it is hard to find out whether both cultivars are equally used. I only know for sure that if in Napels you order "broccoli" as a side dish, this is what you get, and not the cauliflower like heads.

Here is a link that sheds a little more light in the dark, but it is still not clear which exact cultivars or subspecies are meant:

I'm sorry, you need someone who reads Italian for this...

I used the second source; we prefer English-language sources. Thanks, and let me know if you need any more help. --John (talk) 19:47, 12 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
