Cauliflower (Brassica oleracae, variety botrytis) is closely related to cabbage, broccoli, brussel sprouts and kohl rabi. This group of plants may be referred to as crucifers, brassicas or cole crops.
The cauliflower probably developed in Italy from broccoli. The head is the short. thickened part of the immature flowers, before these have differentiated into flower-buds. Cauliflowers are the third most valuable vegetable crop grown in WA.
