Cabbages really do hold a special place in the garden. Reliable, generous, and quietly satisfying, they earn their keep many times over. With this early duo, a February sowing can reward you with fresh cabbages from April, another harvest in June, and then a final bonus crop 6 to 8 weeks later. That’s a lot of good eating from just two varieties.

These are cabbages for gardeners who like getting ahead, making the most of early sowings, and enjoying home-grown veg when it feels like the season has barely begun.

Golden Acre – a compact, tasty, small ballhead cabbage with a long cropping season and a brilliant bonus. Once you cut the first cabbage, make a simple cross cut in the remaining stump and secondary growth will form, giving you a second, miniature cabbage from the same plant. A real value variety that keeps on giving.

Red Express – One of the very best choices for early sowing. Ideal for February starts under protection, it copes well with cold conditions and is perfect for gardeners keen to get going early. Plants form compact, solid, flavour-packed cabbages and can also be grown just 15cm apart for a crop of mini veg.

Sow early, harvest often, and enjoy cabbages at their very best when they’re fresh, tender and full of flavour.
