Future Brussels sprouts by etienne

Future Brussels sprouts

They grow on the "armpits" of the main plant. They will be ready to be picked in autumn.
We usually buy them in bags of just the sprouts, but occasionally, we can buy a stalk at the grocery store. I read that Brussels sprouts have been bred to taste less bitter over the past 20 years.

How very unusual, I have never given it a thought as to how they grow.

Very interesting to see how they grow... not my favorite veggie though... love your description of "where" they grow.

Once you harvest the sprout from "the armpit" will another grow there?

@k9photo Hello Kate, no, there is only one sprout that will come per "armpit"
