Variety description

10 August 2026

The Esperança variety is classified as a representative of the Tronchuda group, which unites crops of the species Brassica oleracea L. var. costata DC., known by the common names Portuguese cabbage or Portuguese kale.

Official agronomic publications lack data on the maturity group, plant height, disease resistance, yield, and quality indicators of this variety. Scientific mentions of the Tronchuda group are general in nature and concern studies of the antioxidant properties of bioactive substances, without reference to the description of the agronomic traits of the Esperança variety.
