💰 Price: Package of 200 seeds (1g)

Chinese Cabbage Seeds Michihilli (Brassica pekinensis) is one of the most famous Asian cabbage varieties, known for its tender, crisp, and sweet leaves with a pleasantly mild and spicy flavor. This dependable variety forms tall, compact heads growing up to 16–20 inches (40–50 cm) high and about 6 inches (15 cm) wide, weighing up to 5 lb (2.3 kg). The outer leaves are green and firm, while the inner ones blanch to a creamy white, creating a beautiful contrast and a delicate texture.

Michihili is an early to medium-maturing cabbage that reaches full size 70–75 days after sowing. It performs best in warm, sunny conditions and offers strong germination, uniform growth, and solid heads. Because of its resilience and consistent yield, it’s an excellent choice for both home gardeners and commercial growers.
