It doesn't have a centre like a usual cabbage, you pick the leaves. I have never grown it before so it is learning journey for me too but there is bits and pieces on the net.
Basically it is French cabbbage and popular there. I belive there is a varigated form too which is interesting. ! of my babies is much lighter than the others, in fact it is almost yellow. I thought it was sick but it is growing just the same as the others. It may die but I will try to keep it.
I have just ordered Jerusalem Artichokes and Chinese Artichokes.
Oh and I have Babbington leeks to plant now, a firend sent them from the UK, I may have mentioned I was getting them. They are perennial.
So my perennial bed is fast getting very interesting. I can't wait for it to start producing.
How is everyone else doing?
Owiebrain, I will keep the info coming and if I get cuttings from my Daubenton further down the road I will share.
