Which dwarf cauliflower?

Short and to the point, can anyone recommend a dwarf cauli that is easy to grow? I have never grown caulis before and Mrs STB recently volunteered to make cauliflower cheese if we grow our own

I grew a variety a few years ago called "Idol" not sure if it's still out there or not though.

As I remember I didn't have any problems other than them all being ready at the same time which is a problem with caulis.. :evil: ,and I left the others a few days and they started to bolt.

So if you get a glut then preserve or freeze any excess as they don't stand long in the ground once they're ready.

Avalanche F1 is good for close spacing to give miniature heads and suitable for container growing. Easy to grow. Available from Thomson & Morgan.
