It's a sensation when we get to welcome a new colour in existing vegetables! Thanks to Wing Seed, we are introducing Red Chinese Cabbage! Beautiful full heads with purplish-green outer leaves, rosy-red inner leaves, and, of course, bright white leaf veins. Beautiful as a finely chopped salad, but after brief stewing, the cabbage also retains a striking pink colour.

Names:
Latin: Brassica rapa cv group Chinese Cabbage, or also campestris var. Pekinensis
Dutch: Chinese kool

English: RED Chinese Headed Cabbage
