Decorative Cabbage
Decorative Cabbage
Decorative Cabbage can be planted in semi-shaded places, but for better growth we place it in a part of our garden with plenty of sun. It is usually planted at distances greater than 50 cm between plants and needs well-draining soil.
Decorative Cabbage does not require much water. It usually needs moderate watering, although during the growing season there is quite a bit of rain. As for fertilization, the addition of complete granular or liquid fertilizer, once a month, is sufficient for its good growth. As the ornamental cabbage grows, we gradually remove its lower leaves when they begin to turn yellow and dry in early spring, until mid-spring when the flower stem develops. We can let ornamental cabbage seed to reseed, otherwise, we pull it up to plant spring flowering plants.
