Extra early fast growing Siberian kale with large, smooth leaves. It resembles curly collar leaves with slightly scalloped edges. They are not as curly as kale, however. The leaves form a rosette and are usually smooth like the collard rather than hairy like the turnip. The stems vary from purple to white. Although it is sometimes compared in growth to turnip, it does not form a fleshy root. Vigorous plants are adapted for cooler climates. Used fresh in salads, has a strong pleasant flavor, mild when steamed. Harvest leaves when small and tender. Best for early spring before other varieties mature. Also known as Early Hanover, Spring kale and Premier kale. Tags: Type: Siberian, Harvest: Early, Color: Green, Specialty: Bolt Resistant, Heritage: Heirloom, Season: Spring Fall Winter.
