Information

Cut flower Cabbage is unusual and very decorative. It has looong leaf-less stalks, 40-50 cm, 8-15 cmwide rose-like small decorative cabbages on top like a cabbage rose in full bloom with great staying power in vases or outdoors. They tolerate quite a lot of frost in autumn and yield lovely "˜cut flowers"™ for a long time after the other flowers are through. One portion contains about 50 seeds.
