Brassica (/ËbraesÉ¨kÉ/) ËbrÃ¦sÉ¨kÉ is a genus of plants in the mustard (Family). Brassicaceae the members of the genus are informally known as cruciferous, vegetables, cabbages or mustard. plantrassica plants have been the subject of much scientific interest for their agricultural importance. Six particular species (B. carinata, B. juncea, B. oleracea, B. napus, B. nigra and B. rapa) evolved by the combining of chromosomes from three earlier species, as described by the Triangle of U theory.
This odd brassica looks like a sputnik but don't let this put you off. It has a delicious smell and nutty flavour. More drought resistant than most brassicas, it succeeds where swedes and turnips fail. Green varieties are sown from mid spring to mid-summer for summer crops; hardier purple varieties are sown from mid-summer for autumn and winter crops.
