Also known as \u2018Branching Borecole\u2019, this productive variety originated in the west of France, with records dating it as far back as 1865. Growing as large as 1m high, this is an easy-to-grow, plain-leaf kale with wide spreading foliage. Particularly suited to our climate, this reliable kale is hardy and very tolerant of poor soils. Supporter Hilary Killops suggests eating it \u2018lightly steamed, and served with a sauce of yoghurt and a little chilli pepper.\u2019<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
