Unit price perBrassica rapa subsp. chinensis
Pak Choi 'Canton White' is a productive Chinese cabbage variety with deep green leaves and short, broad white stems that are thick, crisp and succulent. Renowned for its excellent eating quality and good heat tolerance, it is an ideal choice for gardeners seeking reliable harvests across a wide growing season.
The contrast between the dark green foliage and bright white stems makes this variety as attractive in the garden as it is on the plate. The tender stems and leaves are perfect for stir-fries, soups, steaming and fresh Asian-style dishes. Young plants can also be harvested whole as baby vegetables.
Compared with many traditional pak choi varieties, Canton White performs particularly well through warmer conditions, making it suitable for sowing from spring through autumn in most parts of Australia. Its compact growth habit also makes it well suited to raised beds, kitchen gardens and container growing.
