Kale 'Lacinato'
(60 days)
500 seeds $3.00
Lacinato kale is shockingly expensive at our local grocery store. Yet it's so easy to grow in the garden. The long, narrow leaves are heavily textured. The color is a gorgeous, deep blue-green. It has a distinctive, yet mild flavor that we enjoy.
Italian heirloom. Also known as Dinosaur Kale.
