Notes

'Just Right' cabbage (Brassica oleracea 'Just Right') is a vegetable for food gardens and borders. 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. Its erect habit grows at a moderate pace. Bees and butterflies visit the flowers, and the plant tolerates salt.

Pairs well with Genovese basil, Wild leek, and Berggarten sage.
