The Humble Cabbage
By: Gregg Jacobson on 22 June 2016Excellent variety for spring rolls and other Asian recipes requiring cabbage. Transplants well but can be grown in situ. Michihili enjoys cooler weather, but will grow all year with shade. Grows strongly and easily. Wonderful texture and flavour. Gregg Jacobson
