Marathon F1 Broccoli

High-quality, tight heads with excellent heat and cold tolerance.

A tried-and-true variety for the Southeast, Marathon thrives in our region’s cooler seasons. It produces dense, domed heads with tight beads and excellent flavor. Known for its reliability, this broccoli holds well in the garden without bolting, giving you flexibility in harvest timing.

• Days to Maturity: 60–65
• Head Size: 6–8 in.
• Type: Hybrid broccoli
• Highlights: Tolerates wide temperature range, good side-shoot production
• Best For: steaming with a squeeze of lemon, cheesy broccoli casseroles, hearty stir-fries, and freezing for winter meals.

Bred to handle the unpredictable—hot spells, cold snaps—and still produce tight, dark green heads. Reliable for spring and fall, with side shoots after the main head.
