Sean, the horticulture guru at The Gardener's Center in Darien, CT, is back talking fall ornamental cabbages and kales. These textural treats will last well into the winter and add that chonky, fluffy eye candy to your fall and winter pots.
These beauties are a fall staple, but we should really think of them as a fall AND winter staple in the garden and our containers. Kales and cabbages have a very wide temperature range in which they thrive - 75 degrees all the way down to the mid 30s. This is their “sweet spot” and where they will continue growing. They’ll even survive temps well below freezing. And the cooler it gets, the more their color intensifies! They do well and look great in both the landscape and in containers.

I'm pretty sure they are hybrids between Kale and Cabbage. Gunna breed Dwarf Blue Curled Scotch with red Acre Cabbage and find out.

I have planted these for years. Love them! But…the slugs love them as well. How do you recommend avoiding this ?

@rick5653 10 месяцев назад

Do they really need full sun? Because I have flower boxes that I need to get partial sun

@amarie693 3 месяца назад

Mine are still looking good in April! They’ve shot out a pretty yellow & purple flower that is really attracting bees!?! Is this called going to seed? Can I harvest & plant the seeds?

@TheGardenersCenter 3 месяца назад

Awesome! Yes, they often make it through the winter and produce tall stalks of flowers in the spring that bees love as an early pollen source. When they finish blooming the mother plant will perish. You can cut the stalks and hang them upside down somewhere cool and dry, basements or garages often work. This will allow the seeds to cure so that you can plant them later in the fall.

Is it too late to grow these from seeds in late October in zone 7b?

@TheGardenersCenter Год назад

Yes, it would be too late to start these guys from seed in Zone 7b. Late August/early September would have been the best time to start them that way. At this point you should be able to find a nice selection of started plants in 4, 6 or 8 inch pots at your local garden center or nursery that can be planted now and enjoyed for most of the winter in Zone 7b.
