    I've seen markets sell brussels sprouts on the stalk but I didn't know it had leaves.

    I figured the leaves were the brussels sprouts,

    Thanks for the info.

      Not even another branch - it's the same exact species, just a different cultivar

                Brussels can only be called brussels if they're from the brussels region of france, otherwise it's just sparkling wine

                      If you want them to remain white, you have to cover them in earth, the farmers make ridges of earth to cover them:

                          Yea I've only seen them once though. Usually they are sold pretrimmed in a bag, in the US at least.

                            Unless it's Solanaceae!
                            (Potatoes, tomatoes, bell peppers, chilis, aubergines, tobacco.)

                            It's wild how much of our produce belong to those two families.

                              4 years isn't it? I looked into it back in the 90s, decided hell no. LOL, it was suggested to dig a 4' deep trench to plant them.

                                I should find out how this stuff grows. I have no idea how broccoli and cauliflower grow.

                                Thanks for the info.

                                    The only way I've seen white asparagus is in glass jars with brine and those are disgusting.

                                      Somewhat related story; my middle name is Peter, and I had seemingly misheard it, as for the first 6 years of my life I thought my middle name was pizza.
