Description

A seed-started Ornamental Kale (Brassica oleracea Ornamental Kale Group) suits garden borders and beds. This biennial garden plant benefits from full sun and well-drained soil rich in organic matter from the beginning.

Use a prepared sowing area and follow the crop's normal seed-starting conditions. Keep the soil evenly moist around seedlings, then thin crowded seedlings so the remaining plants have room and airflow.
