Cauliflower is a type of cabbage that features a condensed head of thick, incompletely developed flowers and stalks, which typically have the appearance of white curd.
Cauliflower is a cool season crop, closely related to broccoli, cabbage, kale, turnips and mustard. It is more exacting in its climatic requirements than most other crops in this family. It grows best in a comparatively cool temperature with a moist atmosphere.
