Variety description

The tree kale 'Daubenton's Variegata' is, like its green-leaved counterpart, a perennial, hardy cabbage that takes on a tree-like shape over the years. The characteristics of the two varieties are absolutely comparable, with the difference that 'Daubenton's Variegata' can also be used as an ornamental plant due to its very pretty variegation.
Daubenton's Variegata' is also averse to sexual reproduction: flowers would be more of an accident, which, however, hardly ever happens. Instead, it also really shoots up. Regular harvesting calms the growth somewhat due to the reduced leaf mass. The tree kale 'Daubenton's Green' is frost hardy down to about -15°C. It can live to about 10 years. Without pruning it grows about 150 cm high; with regular pruning it grows wider and bushier. Tree kale should be planted deep. It can cope with a variety of soils, but poor sites should be enriched with a little compost. The leaves of tree kale can be enjoyed fresh or cooked. They are particularly suitable in salads, soups and vegetable dishes. Larger leaves can also be used as wraps.
