About This

• Appearance: Purple kohlrabi stands out with its vibrant purple skin and white, crisp interior. Its shape is typically round or bulbous, resembling a turnip or an alien egg, with leaves sprouting from the top.
• Culinary Use: It can be consumed raw or cooked. When eaten raw, it has a crunchy texture similar to an apple or radish, with a mild, sweet flavor. When cooked, its taste becomes sweeter and more delicate, suitable for roasting, sautéing, or adding to soups.
• Nutritional Benefits: Purple kohlrabi is rich in vitamin C, providing over 100% of the daily recommended intake in just one cup. It's also a good source of dietary fiber, potassium, and vitamin B6. The purple pigment indicates the presence of anthocyanins, antioxidants that may have anti-inflammatory properties.
• Growing Conditions: Like other brassicas, kohlrabi prefers cool weather and grows best in spring or fall in temperate climates. It's relatively easy to grow and can be harvested when bulbs reach the size of a tennis ball for the best flavor and texture.
• Quality: All seeds packaged by Seed Needs are intended for the current and the following growing seasons. All seeds are stored in a temperature controlled facility that is free of significant amounts of moisture.
• Quantity: Seed Needs offers generous quantities. You can share with friends and family, or you can save the extra seeds until the following season, if properly stored.
