That took a long time, which type did you sow?

It is calabrese (american seed pack)

I sowed in Feb 2010 then germinated in March 2010, it was growing since then but it does not look healthy(my 1st time growing broccoli). so I just let it grow by itself. the main stem is big. then just last month I saw a head stating to grow.

I have another one in the backyard but it was eaten by rabbit. it has no more leaves.
