Description
Filderkraut cabbage is an old German heirloom cabbage variety from the Stuttgart area. It has a cultivation period of approx. 95 days and forms a pointed, firm and very large cabbage head. It is an excellent variety for making Sauerkraut. The leaves are finer and less ribbed than most other green cabbages and the taste is also milder. Filderkraut is very good for storage.
