    Broccoli Romanoesco- highly unlikely unless someone tried to grow some on an allotment, Its a summer veg so a real long shot and the only Irish commercial grower of it I think stopped last year because demand was low. He supplies Dunnes Stores if you want to try them but try a high end Dunnes like Cornelscourt that might have imported some if they carried his. If you call the store it might cut the hassle of heading over there.

    I checked the Dublin Fruit and Veg market for a listing but didn't see it listed either there but you could also try Fallon & Byrne. Lovely vegetable especially raw and so unique looking.

    La Rousse Foods have it in limited quantities, you might have to pre-order it though
