Savoy Cabbage Vertus Seeds – Hardy Winter Variety

Savoy Cabbage Vertus Seeds – Hardy Winter Variety

Product Description

Savoy Cabbage Vertus is a traditional, late-maturing variety known for its crisp, puckered, dark green leaves and tender pale heart. This cabbage is easy to recognise by its beautifully ridged, wrinkled texture and mild, sweet flavour that sets it apart from other cabbage types. Perfect for winter gardens, Vertus withstands even the harshest frosts, producing large, flat-round heads of greyish-green leaves that remain firm and flavoursome.

Rich in nutrients, Savoy Cabbage Vertus contains more vitamin C than oranges, as well as essential minerals such as iodine, calcium, magnesium, and potassium. Historically valued by both the Greeks and Romans for its health benefits, cabbage remains a nutritious staple today—ideal for soups, stir-fries, or simple steaming.
