CHINESE or CELERY CABBAGE 
Culture: This is not a true Cabbage and is often called 
Celery Cabbage on account of the shape of the heads which 
resemble celery. The flavor is distinct. It combines the 
qualities of both celery and cabbage and is highly prized as 
a salad vegetable. Plant seed out-of-doors in early summer. 
Thin to 12 to 16 inches apart in the rows. If planted too 
early this species will “bolt” during hot weather and fail 
to form heads.

blocky heads, 8 to 10 inches tall, tightly folded
