Notes
'Dynamo' cabbage (Brassica oleracea 'Dynamo') is a vegetable for food gardens, borders, and specimen plantings. It is typically grown as an annual. Few crops handle cold as well, and with a little winter protection it grows on through light freezes. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It blooms in spring and summer, and bees and butterflies visit the flowers. It also tolerates salt.
Pairs well with Bull's Blood beet, Wild leek, and Georgia Peach coral bells.
