Charleston Wakefield Cabbage

Charleston Wakefield Cabbage is an heirloom variety that's been a longtime favorite of gardeners since its introduction in 1892. This open-pollinated cabbage variety produces conical heads that average 6-8" long and 4-5 pounds. Charleston Wakefield is very heat-tolerant and is especially adapted to the warmer growing conditions of the south. Crisp heads may be prepared raw or cooked. This is a great variety for fermenting and making homemade sauerkraut, but it is also excellent when cooked and used in soups.
