Dowinda
White cabbage Dowinda is a vigorous, heavy yielding store cabbage. The leaves are covered with a thick wax layer. The dense, closed head is elliptical in shape and with a very short inner stem. The variety is ideal for storing. Similar in taste to Dottenfelder Dauer but with a somewhat lighter aroma and less sweet.
