Emerald Savoy cabbage is an early variety producing large, compact, dark green heads with a globe shape and slightly blistered leaves.

The Emerald Savoy Cabbage Plant

Its botanical name is Brassica oleracea var. sabauda, belonging to the Cruciferae family (Brassicaceae). Heads are large and compact, with the typical slightly crinkled leaf surface of savoy cabbages.

How to Sow Emerald Savoy Cabbage

Being an early variety, it matures in around 55 days from transplanting in spring sowings and around 65 days in summer sowings.

How to Grow Emerald Savoy Cabbage

This vegetable resists splitting well and also tolerates overripening, making it suitable for slightly delayed harvests without loss of quality.

Tips for Growing Emerald Savoy Cabbage

Ensure consistent irrigation, preferably drip, to avoid water stress that could reduce head size. Carry out 2-3 irrigation passes right after transplanting to aid establishment.

Diseases and Pests of Emerald Savoy Cabbage

Like other Brassicaceae, it can be affected by cabbage white caterpillars and aphids. Its good tolerance to overripening also reduces the risk of post-harvest rot.

Properties of Emerald Savoy Cabbage

Savoy cabbage is known for its therapeutic properties and can also be eaten raw; in the kitchen it is mostly used to prepare soups, stews, or to wrap other dishes in its leaves.
