A Chinese-type loose-leaf cabbage with lime green leaves and wide white mid-ribs, from the Henry Harrington collection in Southland. Has a slight mustard flavour if grown well. Excellent for kimchi, stir fries and boil-ups, and good in salads when very young. Self seeds easily. Sow in trays in early spring and autumn, prick out at 3 cm and transplant at 6 cm high at 20 cm diagonal spacing.
