Heirloom Beauty with a Frosty Blue-Purple Sheen – The Ultimate Color-Boost for Your Winter Salads!

Bullet Points:

Stunning Blue-Violet Hues: The deep, vibrant bluish-purple heads are visually striking. This unique coloring intensifies when grown in cooler weather, making it a true garden gem.
Perfectly Crisp, Sweet, & Dense: The tightly packed leaves form a firm, heavy head that holds up beautifully to shredding, fermenting (sauerkraut), and cooking without turning mushy.
Beautiful Growth Display: Watch the magic happen! The heads start as tight rosettes of blue-green outer leaves with beautiful purple veining, slowly wrapping into the perfect violet globe.
Rainbow Slaw Essential: Classic American deli-style coleslaw gets its iconic vibrant look from red cabbage. It holds its bright color and crunchy texture beautifully when shredded and dressed.
Rich in Antioxidants: The gorgeous purple pigment comes from natural anthocyanins, offering powerful health benefits that white/green cabbage lacks.
Excellent Cold-Hardy & Long Storage: Thrives in the crisp temperatures of autumn. Heads can be harvested late into the season and stored for months in a cool cellar.

Product Details:

Genus: Brassica
Species: Brassica oleracea (Capitata Group - Red/Purple Cabbage)
Hardiness Zone: USDA Zones 3 – 11 (Excellent cold tolerance; hardy down to 20°F).
Days to Maturity: 70 - 80 days (From transplanting).
Days to Germination: 5 to 10 days (Optimal soil temp: 60°F - 75°F).
Seeding Depth: ½ inch (1.2 cm).
Row Spacing: 24 - 36 inches (60 - 90 cm).
Plant Height: 10 – 14 inches (25 - 35 cm) upright.
Growth Habit: Upright, leafy basal rosette. Forms a dense, firm, perfectly round/globular head of deep blue-purple/magenta leaves with distinct purple veining on the outer grey-green wrapper leaves.
Soil Preference: Deep, loose, fertile, moisture-retentive loam heavily amended with organic matter. pH 6.0 – 7.5.
Temperature Preference: Cool weather. Best performance at 55°F - 65°F (12°C - 18°C). Will bolt if temps consistently exceed 75°F.
Light Preference: Full Sun (minimum 6-8 hours of direct sunlight).

How to Plant & Grow:

Site Preparation: Cabbages are heavy feeders. Choose a location with full sun (6+ hours). Enrich the soil with 4 inches of aged compost and a balanced organic vegetable fertilizer worked into the top 8 inches of soil.
Sowing: Direct sow seeds outdoors in early spring (4-6 weeks before the last frost) or, for the best results, in mid-summer for a fall harvest. Plant seeds ½ inch (1.2 cm) deep and cover lightly with soil. Keep consistently moist until germination (5-10 days).

Spacing:

For Large, Round Heads: Space seedlings 18 to 24 inches (45-60 cm) apart in rows spaced 24 to 36 inches (60-90 cm) apart.
Square Foot Gardening (SFG): Plant 1 plant per 1-square-foot area.
Watering: Deep and consistent watering is essential for tight heads. Provide about 1 to 1.5 inches (2.5-4 cm) of water per week. Crucial Tip: Fluctuating moisture levels (too dry then a sudden heavy rain) will cause the round heads to split open.
Harvesting: The heads are ready when they are firm, dense, and heavy when you lift them (usually 70-80 days). For the sweetest flavor, harvest them after your first light autumn frost. Use a sharp knife to cut the thick stalk just below the lowest outer leaves.
Gardener's Tip: The intense purple color comes from natural plant pigments. To keep this stunning color vibrant, sauté, roast, or eat it raw. Avoid boiling it in water, as the pigment can leach out and turn the water bluish-grey.
