Purple Kohlrabi Seeds, Azur Star

(Brassica Oleracea Gongylodes)
A radiant standout in the garden! This ultra-violet, purple-skinned kohlrabi glows with bold color and offers crisp, juicy white flesh inside. The flat-round bulbs are at their tastiest when they reach 2–3 inches across and are renowned for their sweet, mild flavor, like a tender cabbage with the crunch of a water chestnut. Bred by the Hild Seed Company of Germany, this open-pollinated variety is fast growing, slow to bolt, and perfectly suited for cool-season harvests in spring and fall. Enjoy it raw in salads and slaws, or cook it up, roasted, stir fried, or simmered in stews. Even the tender leaves make a tasty, nutritious addition to dishes.
