Lake Valley White Russian Kale Heirloom Seeds

Ruffled blue-green leaves with attractive white ribs stay tender even when full size. White Russian Kale is a productive plant, rich in nutrients, and easy to grow. Beautiful paired with Red Russian kale in baby leaf salads. This frost-hardy crop is a rock star in the garden even as other vegetables are winding down.

"No matter what I am at Bath for, there are always helpful employees to help me find what I need or tips on how to care for indoor or outdoor plants. They also carry pots, trellises, soil, and interesting plants of all kinds! I was also pleasantly surprised to find compost worms available for purchase without a special preorder. Thank you for being awesome!"
