Description

Brassica oleacea Popof Variegata is part of the ancient vegetables used as an ornamental plant for its beautiful variegated foliage.

The Popof cabbage is a very unique vine-plant with green foliage marginated with white, reaching a height of 60 cm (24in). The foliage is evergreen in winter, making it an excellent winter border plant.

Plus: the leaves, edible, taste excellent.

This annual is to be used in the background or center of a border in a rich, loose, light, and well-drained soil, in a sunny or semi-shaded exposure.

Our advice: Pair it with Surfinias or coreopsis for beautiful colour combinations.

 

Note: Attention, our young plug plants are professional products reserved for experienced gardeners: upon receipt, transplant and store them in shelters (veranda, greenhouse, cold frame...) at a temperature above 14°C (57.2°F) for a few weeks before being installed outdoors once the risk of frost is definitively eliminated.
