Spectacular, fresh tasting pointed cabbage with intense reddish-purple leaves and high sugar content. The interior is dense with a small, tender core.
The plants are large with big wrapper leaves and hold the 1-1.3kg (2-3lb) well off the ground. Good for summer and fall harvests. Kalibos performed exceedingly well in cabbage trials with its superb flavour.
