Answer:
Romanesco didn't make its appearance in international markets until the early 1990s. It's actually an ancient variety that was grown exclusively around Rome (hence its name) until Dutch researchers decided to experiment with growing it and improving the strain.

It is sometimes called Romanesco broccoli or Romanesco cauliflower in North America, Romanesco cabbage in France and broccolo Romanesco in Italy... all the name-calling is indicative of the confusion and difficulty surrounding the classification of this strikingly shaped and strikingly delicious vegetable.
Broccoli Romanesco is a cross between broccoli and cauliflower. Grows in a head consisting of many small, spiral florets and each floret forms a peak (fractals - very cool). It is available in the fall, September to November. It is commonly grown in Northern Italy.
this website has lots of info and history plus a very good picture.
