A rewarding cool-season vegetable, it brings unusual color and texture to beds, borders, and containers, and can be harvested young for the tenderest eating quality.\u003cbr\u003e\nBoth the swollen stems and the leafy tops are useful in the kitchen; stems are excellent raw in slaws and salads or cooked in stir-fries, roasts, and soups, while the greens can be prepared like kale or collards. Plants grow quickly and steadily in cool weather, forming uniform, globe-shaped stems that hold well in the garden. Sow successionally for a steady supply, and harvest while stems are still young and tender for the best flavor and texture.\u003cbr\u003e\nSpecies: Brassica oleracea Gongylodes Group\u003cbr\u003e\nVariety: Purple Vienna\u003cbr\u003e\nType: Heirloom annual vegetable\u003cbr\u003e\nPlant_Habit: Upright rosette forming a swollen stem\u003cbr\u003e\nSun: Full sun to partial shade\u003cbr\u003e\nSoil: Fertile, well-drained, moisture-retentive loam\u003cbr\u003e\nDays_to_Harvest: 55 to 65 days\u003cbr\u003e\nZones: 2 to 11\u003cbr\u003e\nGermination: 7 to 14 days at 65 to 75F\u003cbr\u003e\nSowing: Start indoors 4 to 6 weeks before last frost or direct sow in cool weather\u003cbr\u003e\nSpacing: 8 to 12 inches apart\u003cbr\u003e\nNotes: Cool-season crop; sow in spring and again in late summer for fall harvest\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67664756441224,"sku":"AGY-385","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0717\/4648\/6408\/files\/il_fullxfull.7858966783_s8jz_80e76e06-c193-485b-a1dc-b810a656c28d.jpg?v=1791898610","url":"https:\/\/www.natesgardensupply.com\/products\/100-seeds-purple-vienna-kohlrabi-heirloom-brassica-vegetable-garden-planting","provider":"Nate's Garden Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
