Description
Kale 'Scarlet' produces highly decorative, dark green, red veined leaves which show more colour as colder weather approaches. This superb curly Kale makes a delicious 'salad leaf' when young, or can be grown to maturity for a supply of winter greens at a time when fresh vegetable are scarce in the garden. Mature plants show excellent winter hardiness, standing well in the harshest weather for a long season of harvest. Height: 90cm (35"). Spread: 60cm (24").
Companion planting: Try growing kale with nasturtiums to draw cabbage white butterflies away from your crop, and mint to help deter flea beetles.
