Purple Top Rutabaga seeds

SKU: PTR220

Purple Top Rutabaga is a versatile heirloom that is easy to grow and stores well. The Rutabaga, or "Swede" as the British call it, is a cross between a turnip and cabbage. The flavor is sweet and mellow. Purple Top Rutabagas are a cream color with purple shoulders, although they will turn golden as they are cooked. Each Rutabaga can grow up to 6 inches long. Rutabaga can be steamed or boiled, then mashed in place of potatoes, pureed to make creamy soups, or cut into chunks and used in stews, hashes, or even stuffed. Rutabagas can be grown in early spring for a summer harvest and again in the summer for a fall harvest. The flesh is sweeter when grown in the fall due to the cooler weather.
