Kale

2 plants/3.5” pot. Separate plants and space 12” apart. Clip larger outside leaves and allow interior leaves to continue growing for a continuous harvest.

‘Lacinato’: This Lacinato (aka dinosaur or Tuscan) heirloom kale is ideal for raw kale salads and soups. Leaves are very dark blue-green and heavily savoyed, sweetening with frost. Exceptionally cold tolerant.  Plants can reach 24-36” tall.

‘Dazzling Blue’: This Lacinato (aka dinosaur) kale has blue-green strap leaves with bold purple midribs. Tall, vigorous plants grow quickly, especially for a Lacinato type. There may be some variability in depth of color and leaf shape. Bred by Hank Keogh in Oregon in association with Wild Garden Seed.

‘Red Russian’: Smooth, green, purple-veined leaves with purple stems. Mature plants are medium-tall and leaves are tender compared to other kales. Great for salads and light cooking.

‘Scarlet’: The broad, frilly, purple leaves of this reliable open-pollinated (OP) red kale grow on 2–3' tall (although there can be some variability) upright stalks. Leaves have a red color on a blue-green background.
