‘Red Express’ is an open-pollinated cabbage variety. Our only red cabbage is also our earliest, with reddish-purple, uniform, dense heads with a crisp texture and wonderful flavor. Compact plants can be planted close together and are ideal for Northern climates. Start ‘Red Express’ indoors for transplanting. Plant seeds about ¼ inch deep, space plants 18 - 24 inches apart, and grow in full sun / partial shade. This variety is well suited to smaller gardens.
