Cabbage (Summer)
Earliana
| 1 | 1 | Why wait? Its takes less time for these to mature than any other cabbages. Cuts your growing time in half compared to full season varieties. Both of these are open pollinated, so do not mature uniformly at the same time. That's good, since most people can't use so many heads of cabbage all at once. One packet each Earliana and Red Express.
