Cabbage

Brunswick

A large drumhead cabbage. A fall/winter type cabbage, stores very well. Introduced in 1924, it is an excellent market variety that is becoming rare.

Cour Di Bue

Tender, 3 to 4-lb, pointed, oxheart-type heads; very good for home use or specialty markets. This type of cabbage was very popular 150 years ago. Fairly early and of superb quality.

Flat Dutch

The standard, giant flat cabbage that is good for storage. 10 to 15-lb heads are of high quality; delicious flavor. This heirloom was introduced by European settlers in the 1860’s.

The traditional French variety is very rare outside of Europe. Solid, deep-red heads.

Lettuce

Grand Rapids

Picture
A long standing favorite, Grand Rapids produces medium-large plants that have wavy, frilled, deeply cut, light green leaves. 

Pablo

Picture
Stunning Batavian type is lavishly splashed in vibrant bronze-purple. Lovely enough for the flower bed, or even as a subject for a still-life painting! Mild, crisp and juicy, and very slow to bolt. Batavian lettuces are heading types, and yield heads midway between the tight heads of a crisp head and the loose heads of a leaf type.

Parris Island Cos

Picture
A tasty romaine-type. Uniform heads are pale cream-green inside, and the outside is dark green. Developed around 1949; named after Parris Island, off the East coast.

Slo Bolt

Picture
Ruffled, apple-green leaf type that does better than most lettuces under hot conditions--seldom bolts or becomes bitter. Introduced in 1946.
