Late Flat Dutch Premium Heirloom Cabbage Seeds

Late Flat Dutch Premium Heirloom Cabbage Seeds grow huge heads between 10 and 15 pounds, holding well over a longer window than most varieties. This flavorful heirloom forms low-growing heads with a short core and excellent wrapper leaves. It grows slowly in hot weather but revives quickly in cool, wet conditions, and is a long-time family favorite for sauerkraut and long-term storage.
