Kale, Scarlet

This purple and red curly-leafed kale is a bit smaller than Siberian or Russian varieties and will thrive in pots as well as planted in the soil. Scarlet kale adds great contrast to a medley of large leafy greens, and looks so good you can plant it for the style alone!

Kale: A staple of the healthy garden. Kale is of the same species of as cabbages, brussels sprouts and cauliflower.

Growing Tips: Plant kale at least 10 inches apart in order to give it space to grow and consider planting more like 18 for the largest varieties. Harvest the largest leaves off the side and keep at least 4 to 5 small leaves on the crown to allow it to keep growing and provide kale all season long.
