One of the longest producing, highly ornamental kales we grew in our trials for adding to salads over many months, including the whole of winter. Picked small, the leaves are crunchy and delicious, and look so good.

Care Tips

Grows best on soil which has been manured the previous autumn. Protect against cabbage white butterflies with fine netting. Firm the soil well around plant base to prevent wind rock and provide stakes to support tall plants in autumn.
