Kale seeds — hardy superfood greens all winter

Kale is the toughest and most nutritious of the leafy greens — a cut-and-come-again brassica that crops through the coldest months, often sweeter after frost. One of the many forms of Brassica oleracea, it sits among our leafy brassicas within the vegetable seed range. New to growing? Our vegetable growing guide covers the basics.

Kale can crop from summer right through winter — the calendar shows when to sow.

Curly, cavolo nero and red kales

From frilly curly kale to the dark, blistered leaves of cavolo nero (Tuscan kale) and red-tinged types, all are hardy and productive. Picked young the leaves are tender for salads, joining our leafy greens; grown on they crop for months.

Growing kale from seed

Sow in modules or a seedbed and transplant into firm, fertile soil, keeping plants steadily watered. Net against caterpillars and pigeons — our pest control guide helps — and pick from the bottom up over a long season.
