Description
We should all grow this plant. It's delicious shallow-fried, makes the best Chinese seaweed and looks and tastes fantastic all through the year, fitting well into an ornamental border.
Try 'Redbor' raw, finely chopped in an autumn salad with slithers of raw pumpkin, marinated in lemon juice and dressed with Parmesan and olive oil – fantastic. Kale is a fantastic winter 'superfood'.
Please note, illustrated packets are being introduced gradually over the coming months, availability may vary.
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.
