Decorative, red kale, frost-resistant.
A decorative vegetable, first beautiful, then delicious. Its characteristically curled leaves are dark green and striped red in summer. In autumn, this variety turns bright red in cooler temperatures. Scarlet is robust and provides fresh winter vegetables throughout the harvest season.
Sow from April to June in a seedbed or seed tray with transplants; transplant outdoors in June–July at a spacing of 45 x 40 cm. Harvest takes place from October to January.
Kale is a heavy eater and must be supplied with sufficient nutrients.
