Savoy Perfection Cabbage is a large drumhead-type cabbage having delicious finely-crinkled, medium dark-green savoyed leaves that are sweet and mild in flavor. Finer than most cabbages, being sweeter, with a delicate flavor, it does not give off a sulfur smell when cooking like other cabbage varieties.
Hardy and easy to grow, especially as a late cabbage, its flavor improves even more after a light frost. High production means this is perfect for home gardens and market growers. Heads average 6-8 lbs. Great for stuffing, steaming, stir fry, and is the key ingredient in Italian minestrone soup.
Mentioned in 1932 Burpee's Seed Catalog as, “The best Savoy Cabbage in existence. Considered more tasty than ordinary cabbage. The deep green, crinkled outer leaves enclose a solid, tender, light green heart of remarkably sweet flavor. Easily stored for winter use."
