This is a heirloom kale variety that behaves as a perennial if all flower sprouts are removed each year, making it amazing value for money. It has unusual green and purple leaves and is halfway between brussel sprouts and a kale. It produces an abundance of leaves through winter and into early spring and is delicious steamed or stir fried. Flavour improves when it has experienced frost.
