Cabbage |
Another cole crop full of nutrients. To preserve its vitamins and mineral content, do not overcook cabbage. Avoid cooking in aluminum pans to keep the smell down. Store cut cabbage in the refrigerator in a plastic bag with holes in it and use as soon as possible. Cabbages are also highly ornamental in the garden -choose varieties for colour, deep-red, blue-green, dark-green or leaf texture, savoyed, (crinkled) or flat leaf. (Family: Cole, Brassicaceae)

Pixie Savoy
|
|
|
| These summer harvest pixies are darling little cabbages, much like the Early Savoy Express, at about 1kg (2lbs) each. Beautiful leaves hold sweet flavour and are arranged in a rather loose creamy centre that is perfect for salads. They grow very quickly so start a few each month since they do not hold well in the garden. The slightly pointed heads are in a small frame for closer planting. Matures in 45 days. (hybrid seeds)
