Tundra Savoy cabbage is a blistered, smooth-edged variety producing dark green, round-to-oval heads, suited to both autumn and winter growing.
Its botanical name is Brassica oleracea var. sabauda, belonging to the Cruciferae family (Brassicaceae). It has crinkled leaves with clearly visible veins and a round-oval head shape.
Sowing can take place in summer for an autumn-winter harvest, or in the early months of the year for a summer harvest, depending on growing needs.
Thanks to its hardiness, Tundra cabbage is particularly well suited to withstanding cold, a trait highly valued for autumn-winter crops when other vegetables are scarce.
Take care with drip irrigation using low, repeated volumes, especially in the phase after transplanting, to support good establishment and even head development.
Like other Brassicaceae, it can be affected by cabbage white caterpillars and aphids. This variety's typical cold hardiness also makes it less prone to certain low-temperature physiological stresses.
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.
