Papaw’s Garden Supply: Helping The Next Generation To Grow With Nature.
The Late Flat Dutch heirloom cabbage seeds produce heads between 10 and 15 lbs. and does well over longer periods of time than other varieties. This heirloom variety is full of taste and is a good choice for someone looking for a basic cabbage with huge heads. Low-growing heads have a short core and excellent wrapper leaves. It grows slowly in hot weather but quickly revives in cool, wet weather; it is excellent for long-term storage, has been a family favorite for years, and is excellent for sauerkraut.
