This is an excellent red cabbage. It stands well into the winter and has top flavour. Also I found it was little troubled by cabbage white caterpillars so very easy to grow. Will produce well in relatively shady positions so it fits into my two tier vege garden/orchard systeme

Sweet, crunchy, perfect for salads.
