This Brassica Juncea variety, also marketed as Chinese broccoli or choy sum, is a familiar staple in Cantonese kitchens and a growing favorite in the American home garden. The seed packet promises not just a plant, but a plentiful harvest you can rely on, offering a steady supply of greens for many meals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes Yu Choy Sum special is that you can harvest the entire plant: leaves, stems, buds, and even the bright yellow flowers.
