Description More Info Delivery

Cabbage ‘Luzia’ is a non-heading cabbage also known as a Tronchuda or Portuguese cabbage. Similar to kale but with much more succulent and sweet-tasting white veins, the whole leaf is used in the same way as collard greens. It cooks quickly and is delicious steamed, stir fried and even in salads, as the leaves are so tender. A vigorous plant with an open habit and good resistance to calcium deficiency. Matures in 65 days. Height: 40cm (16”). Spread: 30cm (12”).

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 Summer Cabbages from late June once the heads have matured. Culinary note: Vitamin rich cabbages are particularly high in iron and potassium, but also low in calories.
