    The two photos posted look different - are they both the same thing? Is the difference because it is a hybrid?

    Stonehead cabbage is one of my favorites to grow. It is compact, very firm with a short core and never splits. It is a hybrid so any saved seeds may not come true. This is an early variety.

    One of the older hybrids that is still popular. 3 lb. very solid round head. Dependable. One of the earliest to produce
