Ornamental Cabbage (Brassica Oleracea) - Create a colorful bed, border, or edging with cold tolerant, easy-to-grow ornamental cabbage. This mix contains all pink, white, or purple centers with green outer leaves. Nothing looks more elegant or stands out more beautifully from the subdued fall tones of the border, bed, edging, or container. And it's so easy to grow!
Just start seeds indoors, covering very lightly, then transplant them right up to the beginning of the leaves. They grow green at first, then begin to color up about 3 1/2 months from sowing, quickly forming a perfectly round rosette 10 inches high and 12 inches wide. Among the first Ornamental Cabbages to color up and the last to bolt, they are reliable garden performers and very appealing.
