Napa cabbage originated in the Bejing region of China. It may be a naturally hybridized cross between bok choy and a turnip. It has been grown in China since around the fifteenth century, and has also been grown in Korea for centuries. It is believed to have been brought to Europe around 600 B.C. by groups of Celtic wanderers. The plant did not show up in Japan until the late 1800′s but Japan has since produced many hybrids. Napa cabbage was introduced to North America from China toward the latter part of the nineteenth century.
