'Tundra F1' Winter Cabbage Plants
- Cabbages are incredibly easy to grow, low-maintenance and look highly attractive in the veg plot. 'Tundra F1' is no exception, producing flavoursome white heads in the winter months that can easily withstand a bit of frost
- We'd definitely say that cabbages are underused by the everyday home cook (and hey, look, we're guilty of it, too). But the fact is that they're perfect for a whole range of recipes, including stir-fries, sautéing in butter and garlic, and making incredible Japanese cabbage fritter pancakes (okonomiyaki)
- You can plant your cabbages from the early part of summer and they'll be ready to harvest (depending on when you plant them) from the middle of autumn right the way through to spring
- Once mature, this cabbage can stand in the soil longer than... Than... Well, something that stands for a very long time! We're talking a few months here, and not a piddly few days...
- An F1 hybrid variety that combines the brilliant flavour of a white cabbage with the cold hardiness of a wrinkled, crinkled savoy
- Looking for a cabbage with pedigree? This variety has been awarded the RHS' Award of Garden Merit, showcasing its quality of performance in British gardens
