Varieties of White cabbage
Which variety suits you depends on site, space and taste. Here are the White cabbage varieties with their particulars.
- ‘Braunschweiger’A robust, seed‑tight storage classic with large, flat‑round heads, cultivated in northern Germany since the 19th century.
- ‘Dithmarscher Früher’An early, seed-stable variety from the northern German cabbage region of Dithmarschen, it delivers the first firm heads already in early summer.
- ‘Filderkraut’The famous pointed cabbage from the Filder near Stuttgart, a self‑seeding land variety that you harvest until November.
- ‘Kilaton F1’A modern F1 hybrid valued above all for its high resistance to clubroot, the root disease that makes many brassica beds in the garden unusable.
- ‘Türkis F1’A reliable F1 hybrid that has established itself as a proven variety for sauerkraut and processing.
