Thompson & Morgan Kale Dwarf Green Curled 1 Seed Packet

This variety of curly kale is proving popular, not least because of its ability to thrive even in windswept places or areas with poorer soils. Kale 'Dwarf Green Curled' produces dark green, frilled leaves which make an attractive display and are of brilliant quality. This plant, like other kale, is hardy and holds its own in a variety of weather conditions. Kale is exceptionally hardy and requires little aftercare. Water when necessary and hoe between plants regularly to prevent weeds from establishing and bring insect larvae to the surface. Kale can be harvested from September as young leaves using a cut and come again method, but will stand well in the ground for a long time throughout winter, and improves in flavour after it has been frosted. Pinch out the centre stem first to encourage side shoots to develop. Harvest kale when it is required as the leaves do not store well, unless they are frozen. Ideal For: Kitchen Garden . Hardiness: Hardy . Position In: Full sun, Sun or semi sha
