Redarling Brussels sprout seeds produce a unique and colorful twist on a classic cool-season crop, offering vibrant reddish-purple sprouts that retain their color even after cooking. Bred for improved cold tolerance and rich pigmentation, Redarling plants grow about 30–36 inches tall and yield compact, flavorful 1–1.5 inch sprouts with a mildly sweet, nutty taste, especially after exposure to frost. Start seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost and transplant into well-drained, fertile soil in full sun, spacing plants 18–24 inches apart. They require consistent watering, occasional feeding, and staking for support as they mature over 140–160 days. Ideal for roasting, sautéing, or adding color to fall and winter dishes, Redarling Brussels sprouts are both ornamental and delicious, making them a standout in the garden and kitchen.
