Variety

    A Gourmet Garden Essential – Available in Two Vibrant Varieties.

    Commonly known as the "German Turnip," Kohl Rabi is a fast-growing, delicious brassica that produces a swollen, bulb-like stem just above the ground. It is prized for its crisp, juicy white flesh that offers a mild, sweet flavour—reminiscent of a cross between a crisp apple and a tender broccoli stem.

    Select your variety:

    • Green Delicacy: The classic choice for the earliest harvest. It produces pale, lime-green bulbs with a delicate, melting texture. Excellent for early spring sowings.

    • Purple Delicacy: A stunning addition to the garden with vibrant, deep-purple skin. It is slightly slower to mature than the green variety but offers superior hardiness and a striking visual contrast on the plate.

    Why grow Kohl Rabi?

    • Versatile in the Kitchen: Peel and slice raw for a crunchy snack, grate into coleslaws, or roast with olive oil for a sweet, nutty side dish.

    • Perfect for Small Spaces: Their upright growth habit makes them ideal for raised beds or even large containers.

    • Quick to Harvest: From seed to plate in as little as 8–10 weeks.


    Growing Instructions

    • Pack Size: 500 Seeds

    • Position: Full Sun; fertile, moisture-retentive soil.

    • Sow Outdoors: March to July.

    • Sowing Depth: 1cm (0.5in).

    • Spacing: Rows 30cm apart; thin seedlings to 15cm (6in) apart.

    • Harvest: June to October.

    Gardener’s Tip: To enjoy Kohl Rabi at its best, harvest when the bulbs are between the size of a golf ball and a tennis ball. This ensures the texture remains crisp and succulent. If left to grow too large, the "bulb" can become woody.
