Puma is an extra-early maturing high quality hybrid for use as a ‘baby’ or small cabbage. The plants and heads are very compact and extremely uniform. If heads are left to mature under normal conditions, they can weigh up to 1.2 kg. The heads are very firm and have a very attractive dark green colour. Puma has a delicious flavour and excellent shelf life that is vastly superior to that of other varieties in this class. Outstanding results are especially achieved in the warm season. Puma has intermediate resistance to Fusarium yellows (Foc).
