Flowering Kale
Flowering Cabbage. Consider Kale as an important part of your landscape. They are popular in mass plantings with Pansies, Dianthus, and Mums. We have been using ornamental kale as fall plantings and noticed that they lasted longer than our summer plantings. They can be used for beds and planters; their size is dependent on how closely together they are planted. Culture: Start in plugs until July 15 and transplant into larger sizes until planting into fall location. Frost enhances the colours. NEW
