Our Kale Plants are reliable and hardy and are a great choice for vegetable gardens, allotments and raised beds. Easy to grow and wonderfully versatile in the kitchen, kale can be harvested over a long period for a regular supply of fresh leaves.
Choose from Dwarf Green Curled, Nero Di Toscana or Mixed. Dwarf Green Curled produces tightly curled green leaves, while the popular Italian variety Nero Di Toscana develops long, dark leaves with a distinctive texture and flavour.
Plant your Kale Plants in a sunny or partially shaded position with fertile, well-drained soil. Keep them watered during dry spells and simply pick the outer leaves as required, allowing the centre to continue growing.
Hardy, productive and straightforward to look after, kale is a great choice for anyone wanting to enjoy more homegrown vegetables throughout the year.

Watering Keep the soil consistently moist while the crop is establishing and growing, especially during flowering, fruiting or rapid leafy growth. Water deeply at the base rather than little and often, allowing excess water to drain away. Plants in containers, grow bags or greenhouses may need daily checks during warm weather.
Best Growing Conditions Grow in partial shade to gentle sun in fertile loam, enriched with organic matter where appropriate. Choose an open position with good airflow and enough space for the crop to mature without excessive competition. Protect tender crops from late frost and cold winds, and use greenhouse or sheltered growing conditions where the variety requires extra warmth.
