Description

'Matterhorn' F1 brings a new twist to the classic sweetheart cabbage - with striking red, pointed heads weighing 1-1.25kg. Harvestable just 60-75 days from planting, it offers a tender texture and a naturally sweeter flavour than standard red cabbage. Perfect for summer and early autumn harvests, its vibrant colour and crisp leaves make it a standout in fresh salads, slaws, or cooked dishes. A fresh take on a cabbage favourite. Ultimate height: 40cm (16in). Ultimate spread: 50cm (20in).

Companion planting: Try growing cabbages with Nasturtiums to draw cabbage white butterflies away from your crop, and mint to help deter flea beetles.

1 Packet (20 Seeds) (KJ1781)

Sowing
Sow thinly direct (Apr-Jun) into a finely raked, weed-free seedbed at a depth of 1.3cm (½"). Germination 7-14 days. Transplant when large enough to handle allowing 60cm (24") between plants each way. Alternatively, seeds can be started off in small pots or modules (Mar-Jun) in a cold frame or cold greenhouse. Plants grow best in a bed that has been manured the autumn before and the ground should be firmed after planting.
More Info
Water cabbages regularly, particularly during dry periods. Feed throughout the growing season with a high nitrogen feed. Hoe between plants regularly to prevent weeds from establishing and bring insect larvae to the surface. Draw earth up around the base of each stem to prevent wind rock and improve the plants stability. Harvest Autumn Cabbages from late summer once the heads have matured. Culinary note: Vitamin rich cabbages are particularly high in iron and potassium, but also low in calories.
