Grow Longer: The Best Cold-Tolerant Veggies


Cabbage plants growing in a raised bed.
 

Cabbage

Cabbages can be as ornamental as they are edible. There are many different types; pick varieties called early cabbage (such as 'Earliana') for spring harvests. Late cabbage varieties (such as 'Vantage Point') are better for planting in midsummer and harvesting in fall.

Here's a hint: Add color to your vegetable garden with red-leaf cabbage varieties such as 'Ruby Ball' or 'Super Red'.

Standout Variety: 'Gonzales', which bears softball-size heads in about 60 days.
