Cabbage 'Ormskirk' Savoy Type

Description

The Ormskirk savoy cabbage is a English heirloom variety originating from the Lancashire market town Ormskirk. As you can imagine, this cabbage is no stranger to cold and wet weather. It will resist splitting, even in a wet winter. The leaves are heavily crinkled - verdant green on the outside with pale green hearts. This is one of the tastiest heirloom savoys around - the sweet leaves hold their bite after cooking.

Sow: March-April (undercover or outside with fleece or cloche)
Plant: May, 45cm apart
Harvest: Autumn-Winter
Kitchen: Roast, steam, sautee or braise. Pairs with acidic flavours (lemon, white wine). fats (sesame, bacon, chorizo, walnuts, parmesan), alliums (garlic, leeks), aromatics (mustard, cumin, parsley, coriander, thai sweet basil, ginger).
Notes: To avoid massive cabbage heads, grow no further than 45cm apart. As with all brassicas, plant deep to avoid toppling.

~0.5g/150 seeds
Germ: 100% Oct 24
