cabbage - golden acre
This early-maturing Copenhagen-type cabbage produces firm, round heads on compact plants, making it ideal for small garden spaces. It is the earliest cabbage variety we offer, with heads reaching approximately 15-17 cm in diameter and weighing around 2 kg. Unlike many other cabbages, it tolerates closer spacing and thrives even in poorer soils. Highly resistant to bolting and yellowing, it is a reliable choice for diverse growing conditions. While this variety has likely been cultivated in North America for even longer, it was first mentioned in seed catalogs as early as 1927. Packet includes 70-80 seeds.
