Kale - Dazzling Blue Lacinato (100 seeds)

Kale Dazzling Blue Lacinato

Kale 'Dazzling Blue Lacinato' is a striking and colourful twist on the classic lacinato kale, producing deeply textured blue-green leaves with vivid pink-purple midribs that make it as ornamental in the garden as it is useful in the kitchen. The leaves are sweet and tender with excellent flavour that improves noticeably after frost, and the striking colour holds well through cool weather. Excellent eaten raw in salads, sautéed, or added to soups and stews.

Hardy and cold-tolerant, 'Dazzling Blue Lacinato' is a productive and slow-to-bolt variety that provides a long harvest window through autumn and winter in New Zealand conditions. A rewarding and visually impressive plant that performs consistently in home gardens and raised beds with minimal fuss.
