Winter colour with bold foliage flair.
Ornamental cabbages bring striking texture and vibrant colour to autumn and winter gardens, thriving when most plants are fading. Available in White, Red, Rose, and our Growers Mixed Selection, each variety forms a neat rosette of ruffled leaves, with hues that deepen and intensify as temperatures drop. These frost-hardy plants are perfect for creating eye-catching displays in pots, baskets, and borders, and they pair beautifully with winter pansies, violas, or flowering kale for layered seasonal planting.
Grown peat-free at our Yorkshire nursery and supplied in generous 1L potted size, these ornamental cabbages arrive with healthy, fully established rootballs, ready to plant straight into your garden for instant impact. Naturally resilient, they tolerate cold down to -15°C, maintaining their showy foliage through the chilliest months. While technically edible, they are best appreciated for their ornamental value, adding bold structure and colour to outdoor spaces when flowers are scarce.
