Description

Cabbage Savoy (Brassica oleracea var. capitata costata) is a classic European heirloom celebrated for its beautiful, deeply crinkled, lace-like leaves and delicate, sweet flavor. Producing dense, round heads weighing 3 to 5 pounds, it features tender, deep-green ruffled outer foliage surrounding a pale yellow-green interior core. Highly cold-hardy, its texture softens and its flavor grows remarkably sweeter after exposure to autumn frosts, making it the premier choice for gourmet stuffed cabbage rolls, soups, stir-fries, and fresh winter salads.

Good to know

Exceptional cold hardiness—frost and light snow enhance leaf sweetness and tenderness
Tender, flexible crinkled leaves hold up beautifully to cooking without tearing, ideal for stuffed cabbage rolls
Naturally more resistant to cabbage worm damage and splitting than smooth-leafed cabbage varieties

Takes slightly longer to reach full maturity (80–90 days from transplant) than fast early varieties
Crinkled leaf structure requires thorough washing to remove garden dust or insects prior to cooking
