Excellent Kale
I've been growing black kale for 4-5 years. It's wonderful in combination with pasta dishes, but just last year I tried it in a salad with a lemony Caesar dressing on it. I'm an addict. This is an excellent producer, btw.

Beautiful Hardy Kale
I love it's beautiful texture leaves and how hardy it has been throughout the winter with a spring like flow cover(planted last August and it's here ready to eat along with your spinach and new to me the three varieties of cima di rapa) I couldn't be more thrilled about the results! BY THE WAY "thank you" for including recipes on your website my husband loves being a recipient of these new recipes(to us...)
