Vates Blue Scotch Curled Kale Seeds – Heirloom Curly Kale

A compact, cold-hardy curled kale that handles cool springs, partial shade and even a dusting of snow after hard autumn frosts. Leaves are mildly sweet, a bit like broccoli stems. Summer heat makes it bolt, so grow it in the cool seasons.

Heirloom, Open-pollinated, Non-GMO.
