Product Description

Overview

Cabbage Cabeza Negra 2 is a highly popular red cabbage variety known for its dense, deep red heads and smooth, tightly wrapped leaves. Originally cherished across mainland Europe, it has become a firm favourite among UK gardeners and chefs alike. Its rich colour, crisp texture, and deliciously sweet flavour make it a versatile choice for both traditional and modern dishes.
