Notes

'Storage No. 4' 4 cabbage (Brassica oleracea 'Storage No. 4') is a vegetable for the food garden and the border. It is grown for excellent eating quality from storage. 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. It also tolerates salt, and bees and butterflies visit it.

Pairs well with Berggarten sage, Everbearing strawberry, and Jimmy Nardello pepper.
