(50 days) A relatively new open-pollinated introduction from the U.K., this stunning kale produces heavily frilled leaves that start dark green with red veining and become progressively more red-purple as the weather gets cooler. It's more than just a pretty face, though, having great flavour as both a baby leaf or as a mature crop.
