ORGANIC SEEDS!A beautiful old variety, such as this was cultivated in the 19th century in East Frisia (Germany). The leaves are not strongly curled, have a touch of blue in the very large, green leaf and can grow 1 m high. Protect the plants in winter with acrylic cloth, then you can continue harvesting for a while (sometimes for years). Due to their elegant shape, they are also called German Palm Kale. Tree Kale would also be an apt name!
