A vegetable intermediate between a cabbage and a 
turnip which combines the flavor of both. It forms 
a turnip-shaped bulb above ground which is boiled 
and served like turnips. If used when young, is 
tender and a very desirable vegetable.

plant. Out-of-doors sow in open ground the first 
part of April in rows 18 inches apart; thin out or 
transplant to 6 inches apart in the row. Cultivate 
same as cabbage. It can also be sown the latter part 
of June or in July for fall use. One ounce will sow
