Featuring beautiful finely curled, blue-green leaves, these hardy plants will maintain their color even in severely cold temperatures. They are an excellent kale variety and will overwinter under mulch in many growing zones.

Kale is a nutritious and versatile vegetable that is easy to grow in a variety of climates. It prefers well-drained soil and full sun to partial shade, and can be propagated from seed or transplants. Plant seeds or transplants in early spring or fall, 0.5-1cm (¼-½”) deep and spaced 30-45cm (12-18”) apart. Keep the soil moist until the seeds germinate or the transplants take root. Kale can benefit from regular applications of compost or a balanced fertilizer throughout the growing season. The plant can grow up to 60-90cm (24-36”) tall, and can be harvested by picking individual leaves or by cutting the entire plant. To promote continued growth, remove the lower leaves as they yellow and become tough. Kale can be harvested at any time during the growing season, but is sweeter after a frost.
