Notes
'Triumph of Prague' kohlrabi (Brassica oleracea 'Triumph of Prague') is a vegetable for food gardens, borders, and pollinator gardens. 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 butterflies and bees visit the flowers.
Pairs well with Celeriac, Genovese basil, and Everbearing strawberry.
