Kale Blue Curled Scotch (Brassica napus ssp. pabularia)
The first mentions of this heirloom variety of kale date back to 1863. As its name suggests, Blue Curled Scotch has profusely curled leaves with a blue-green hue that form a compact plan. Accustomed to extreme cold, you can pick its leaves until very late in the season. In fact, after a few frosts, its flavor will improve by becoming sweeter.
The vast majority of our seeds are produced on our farm. However, if the cultivation of a variety fails or if it is out of stock, we source from other seed companies to ensure an interesting selection. This is the case for this variety.
