Brassica oleracea var. capitata, commonly known as white cabbage, is one of the most versatile and traditional vegetables in the home garden. The Zora variety is an early-harvesting variety known for its compact, firm heads, uniform growth, and mild, fresh flavor. This white cabbage is ideal for both amateur gardeners and professional growers seeking a reliable harvest, fast growth, and excellent culinary qualities.
The Zora forms medium-sized, round to slightly flat heads with densely packed leaves. The variety is distinguished by its uniform growth, firm heads, and short cultivation period, allowing harvesting to take place within 70 to 85 days after sowing.
Zora's compact size makes it particularly suitable for small gardens, raised beds, or intensive cultivation where efficient use of space is important. Its sturdy structure also makes it suitable for storage, transport, and processing.
Growing Brassica oleracea (White cabbage) Zora is easy and suitable for both novice and experienced gardeners. Sow the seeds from March to May in seed trays or pots. Plant out the young cabbage plants once they have 4–5 true leaves, spacing them about 45–50 cm apart.
Zora grows best in a sunny location with well-drained, fertile soil. Regular watering is essential for even growth and firm heads. Mulching helps retain moisture, restricts weed growth, and promotes healthy soil.
This variety is relatively resistant to common cabbage diseases such as Fusarium and black cabbage rot, which reduces the risk of failure and makes cultivation more reliable.
The Zora is known for its mild, fresh flavor and crunchy texture. It's versatile in the kitchen and can be used in various ways:
Fresh: finely chopped for salads, coleslaw or wraps.
Stewed or boiled: ideal for stews, casseroles and side dishes.
Fermented: suitable for small quantities of sauerkraut or other fermented dishes.
In addition, Zora is rich in vitamin C, K and fiber, and contains antioxidants that contribute to healthy digestion and a strong immune system.
Brassica oleracea Zora offers gardeners an early harvest, compact growth, and reliable yields. Thanks to its short growing season, firm heads, and disease resistance, this variety is ideal for both hobby gardens and commercial crops.
