Buy Savoy cabbage seeds

Savoy cabbage ‘Vertus 2’ (Brassica oleracea var. Sabauda) has finely wavy dark green leaves. The heads are firm, compact and medium-sized. The taste is more delicate than that of white cabbage. But not only does it taste delicious, it also has healing properties. It has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties and supports the fight against stomach ulcers. It keeps very well until February in a cool and dark room. Perfect for eating fresh, such as in a salad with carrots, onions and cream. Stuffed cabbage wrapped in the leaves is also delicious. Braised it is also very tasty and you can pickle or ferment it without any problem.

Savoy cabbage should grow in a sunlit or lightly shaded location with a well-heated substrate. The soil to be grown should be medium heavy and well cultivated. Cabbage beds should be systematically loosened and weeded. Pay attention to plant density, too close together growing heads will not reach a good size, the crop will be poorly ventilated, so it will be exposed to diseases. Cabbage should be fertilized fairly often with fertilizers, preferably organic, and in the absence of sufficient rainfall, watered often enough.
