Product Information
Grow your own fresh and nutritious cabbage with our Early Copenhagen Market Seeds!
Early Copenhagen Cabbage is a garden staple, one of the earliest producing cabbages. Wonderfully formed heads weigh in at 1-1.5 kg (2-3 lbs) at maturity. It is just as popular for cooking as it is for fresh eating, and stores very well, too. This variety is an established favorite among gardeners that will continue to be loved over time for its consistent production and superb taste.
Copenhagen produces tight, compact heads that can be spaced closer together making it perfect for small gardens.
