Dwarf Green Curled' is a very compact, hardy and easy to grow kale. This dwarf variety grows to 30 to 45cm (12 to 18in) tall and produces an abundance of tender and delicate, densely curled green leaves . It is ideal for windswept or small gardens.
Introduced before 1865 and popular ever since, it was once also known as ‘Dwarf Curlies’ or 'Scotch' kale. The frilly, dark green, sturdy leaves are often mistaken for an ornamental garden plant and can create an exciting backdrop in flowerbeds.
As winter crops, kale can't be beat, it is one of the least problematic and hardiest plants in the wide and varied Brassica tribe. It is immune to most of the disease that trouble many Brassicas including pigeons.
Their major value to gardeners is providing delicious, highly nutritious greens when the weather is far too cold for other vegetables. Kale is extremely cold hardy, The flavour actually improves after a hard frost and it will tolerate conditions that would make most brassicas keel over.
A “cut and come again” crop, leaves can be harvested as needed throughout the winter. The tasty leaves can be added to soups, stir-fries, streamed, or simply finely chopped and added to salads for a nutrition and fiber boost.
