Brassica oleracea
Start seeds in flats very early in spring for early summer harvest, or 6+ weeks before first fall hard frost for winter harvest. Like a cabbage, does best in good soil for rapid growth, best with later fertilization. Best to keep moist, but fairly drought-tolerant. Likes full sun. Shallow cultivate for first few weeks. Harvest pull tender top leaves or harvest the whole plant. Spacing 12" Tolerates winter cold.
60 days. This loose-leafed cabbage dates back to the early 1800’s at least. It has beautiful, deep black-green leaves that can be 24” long. They are heavily savoyed. This Italian heirloom is popular in Tuscany and central Italy for making fabulous soups and stews. One of the most beautiful and flavorful types you can grow.
Tender, 3 to 4-lb, pointed, oxheart-type heads; very good for home use or specialty markets. We offer quality Italian seed for this old European heirloom. This type of cabbage was very popular 150 years ago. Fairly early and of superb quality.
Larger than Early Jersey Wakefield (4-6 lbs), and only a little later, this fine variety was developed by Peter Henderson & Co. in 1892. It is a good variety for the South.
