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.

"This local nursery is great! Lots of events and seasonal promotions, even cool decor and nick-nacks. I even got a few cut tops there! It's a great shop with great service. They also have a rewards program."

"I was in there today may 17th 2025 and two very lovely employees helped me out! One was a guy (cashier) other was a young woman in a hat. The guy asked if I would like the plant repotted and informed me that I needed a bigger pot for the plant to grow in. The girl walked me back to the pots and helped me pick the right size! They were very friendly and helpful they made my visit there amazing! I hope you know who I am talking about so you can give them recognition!"
