About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
An open-pollinated summer savoy cabbage for an early harvest from midsummer, when other savoy varieties still need a long time. The round, medium-sized heads form a tender, light green blistered wrapper and are ready to cut quickly. Sow it from spring onwards and you will have fine young savoy in the kitchen as early as the end of June.
Mild and tender, noticeably finer than the robust winter varieties. Ideal for light summer dishes, briefly steamed or as young savoy in the pan.
