THIS IS A HEIRLOOM VARIETY AND HAS A VERY GOOD STRAIN

Red Russian Kale is a high yielding variety high in nutrients. This crop is leafy and green in color with red stems. Red Russian Kale is versatile and can be used for kale chips, soups, salads and stir fries. Kale does well in all grow zones, with full or partial sunlight

This delicious kale is pretty enough to plant among the flowers. Much larger than regular kale (2 to 3' tall), the stems are reddish and the leaves are shaped like big oak leaves and colored a velvety gray green. The red colors become richer after frost, when the flavor becomes sweeter. Surprisingly, the big leaves are very tender and delicious. Kale requires good cultivation; mulch or hoe frequently to keep soil loose and weed-free. Plants may be left outdoors all winter. Frost improves flavor.
