For more about the many varieties of _[Brassica oleracea](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brassica_oleracea)_, see “[Fractal Food](https://www.fourmilab.ch/images/Romanesco/)” at Fourmilab. Here is more about [Brussels sprouts](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brussels_sprout) in particular. The Netherlands produces 82,000 tonnes of Brussels sprouts per year, more than any other country. U.S. production is around 32,000 tonnes, mostly in California.
