Know before you buy
This variety features a unique feather-leaf cut and significantly longer stems, which are specifically bred for professional floral arrangements. Its distinct texture and white color offer a more contemporary, architectural look compared to traditional, ruffled ornamental kale.
These are raw, untreated seeds, so they are best started indoors using the transplant method. You should plan to transplant them into the garden once they are established, rather than sowing them directly into the soil.
You can expect these kale plants to reach maturity in approximately 105 days. Given their growth cycle, they are well-suited for both spring and fall planting schedules.
No, this variety is not recommended for container gardening. It is specifically designed for cutting gardens where it can reach its full height of 20 to 36 inches.
To germinate successfully, keep the soil temperature between 70-75°F and ensure the seeds are covered, as they require darkness to sprout. You should see germination within 10 to 12 days.
No, this specific ornamental variety does not attract pollinators. It is grown primarily for its aesthetic value in floral design rather than for ecological support.
