Notes
'Primero' cabbage (Brassica oleracea 'Primero') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and borders. It is typically grown as an annual. It is one of the more cold-hardy crops and can keep growing through light freezes with some winter protection. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Primero is ready to pick in 72 days. Bees and butterflies visit its blooms.
Pairs well with Berggarten sage, Black Cherry tomato, and Helene Von Stein lamb’s ear.
