The classic garden cabbage may not really be Dutch. It was actually brought to the new world by German immigrants around 1840 (the same way most people called "Pennsylvania Dutch," are actually from German stock), but Dutch or German, it's still the best, with firm heads measuring about 12" in diameter.


The 'Late Flat Dutch Premium' Cabbage Plant is the most popular late variety. It has up to 30-pound heads that store well. Late Flat Dutch heads are flat on top, just as the name indicates. It is an excellent cabbage for kraut.

Sow late varieties outdoors in late spring. *For southern California gardeners.. plant all year long. Avoid hot full sun. May need extra shade on hot days.
