Kohlrabi Purple Vienna is a distinguished heirloom variety celebrated for its striking visual appeal and consistent culinary performance. The plants develop distinctive purplish foliage that creates an ornamental quality in the garden, while the above-ground globe bulbs mature to an ideal 2 to 2½ inches in diameter. This size represents the optimal harvest window when the crisp, white interior flesh achieves peak tenderness and flavor complexity. The mild turnip-cabbage flavor profile of Purple Vienna distinguishes it from other kohlrabi varieties, offering a delicate taste that appeals to diverse palates. The bulbs are slightly larger and mature somewhat later than the White Vienna counterpart, providing extended harvest flexibility for succession planting strategies. This timing advantage allows gardeners to stagger plantings for continuous production throughout the growing season. Purple Vienna demonstrates exceptional versatility in culinary applications. The tender bulbs are excellent sliced thin for fresh salads and crudités, where their crisp texture and subtle flavor shine. When cooked, they excel in steaming preparations that preserve their delicate character, or incorporated into stir-fries where they absorb complementary flavors while maintaining structural integrity. The bulbs also freeze exceptionally well, making them suitable for preservation and winter use. Anticipate harvest readiness in approximately 70 days from transplanting, with germination rates of 60% or higher ensuring reliable establishment.
