This is a large, highly productive kale, with violet leaves that turn a violet-blue after frosts. Hardy to tough winter conditions, the versatile leaves can be eaten young in salads, or once mature, treated as a winter green and steamed or sautéed with garlic. A hardy vegetable providing a long season of harvest.
