The first introduction of 'semi round' ballhead spring Cabbage. Cabbage Spring Hero has good frost hardiness and forms solid heads from late April through to May which remain solid over several weeks. Can also be sown in spring for summer maturity.
An outstanding variety. Ideal for small gardens. Cabbage Hispi can be grown at virtually any season of the year and comes to maturity faster than cabbages specially created for specific seasons. Even autumn sown it will beat the earliest of the spring cabbages. Hispi is a pointed type, strong and uniform and with a beautifully sweet flavour. A Jan/Feb sowing fills the late spring gap in cropping. Bolt resistant. Andrew Tokely says: I always sow this cabbage in early March, and I harvest the first sweet and tender hearts by mid June. This is far quicker than traditional spring cabbage sown in the autumn and the flavour is miles better too
This is a hardy winter cabbage, not even severe frost seems to bother it. The heads of Cabbage January King are crisp and crunchy with good flavour and the leaf is a conifer-blue colour.
