Everything else in the garden, without exception, is withered, brown, and dead. However, despite several sub freezing nights and quite nippy days, the kale struggles on!

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
It's good for your EYES.
ReplyDeleteTrue, but it's also very high in vitamin K, which is contraindicated by the medicines I take for my heart condition. Therefore, I can only eat a very small bit of it.
DeleteWe had that too, last year, I think it was a cabbage? You couldn't kill that thing with a stick! We all ought to be growing these things for when the grid goes down.
ReplyDeleteYep! Kale is a cultivar of Brassica oleracea, so it's of the exact same species as cabbage, brussels sprouts, cauliflower, broccoli, and several other vegetables. They all seem to be resistant to cold weather.
