Kale, Red Ursa - Brassica napus

(70 days)

An award winner from organic breeder Frank Morton at Wild Garden Seeds that was selected among the top 5 Best New Vegetable Introductions of 1997 in the National Gardening Trials. Combines the broadleaf frills of ‘Siberian’ with the color of ‘Red Russian’. Great raw flavor for salads, especially the young mature leaves of full-grown plants. Gives good fluff to a flat salad. Bolting purple stems of overwintered plants are very sweet, colorful, and heavy salad items—also perfect for light cooking or stir fry. OSSI (Open Source Seed Initiative) Pledged Variety.
