Southern Exposure Seed Exchange - 79 days. Introduced 1820 by David Landreth. Old-fashioned and unique variety with smooth, bright green leaves. Heat- and frost-resistant, slow-bolting and non-heading. 30-34 in. tall. Excellent resistance to cabbage worm and cabbage looper. Recommended especially for Southern and warm coastal states. Thin out any dull-leaved off-type plants. Brassica oleracea
Instructions - Grow best on a rich, moist, well-drained loam of high fertility. Needs a steady supply of water and full sun throughout the growing season.
A thick layer of organic mulch will conserve moisture and reduce the tendency to bolt in hot weather. Tendency to bolt is affected more by root temperature than air temperature. Clip individual leaves before they are 12 in. long.
