Cabbage 'Filderkraut' is a very unique heirloom variety that develops long pointed heads that are about 6 inches across at the base. Plant in full sun, in well amended soil and feed with a high nitrogen fertilizer. These large plants will grow to 24 inches across, so give them plenty of space between each other.
Planting: 24-30 inch space between plants. Water in after planting.

Harvest when heads feel very dense when squeezed. These cabbage heads will keep for a few weeks in the refrigerator. This is an old variety that was originally used in Europe to make sauerkraut. It may be used like any other cabbage to make a fantastic cole slaw, baked cabbage wraps, Chinese Mu Shu or even Kim Chi.
