Tried Bubbles for the first time in 2011. Great success. Large sprouts with excellent flavor. They mature fast - 90 days. I planted them too early and left them in the garden until the first frost well beyond their maturity. They were still excellent. I suggest setting them in the garden about 100 days before first frost in your area. They will continue to grow and develop after the first frost so no need to pick them all at once. They also freeze very well - remain firm and hold their good taste. They\'re fairly tall (up to 4 feet) and will probably need some staking. |

I was given some of these from my 91 year old gardener friend who claims these are the best of all varieties he has tried. He won't pick them until they have been hit with a hard frost or two. I plan to try them this season. |

I thought these were the best flavored sprouts until I grew 'Falstaff'. I have grown them for several years and they grow and produce best for me. Their flavor is good. I will continue to grow them. |
