This heirloom is prized for its gorgeous, deeply savoyed (crinkled) leaves that are such a dark green they appear almost black. The flavor is rich and robust, with a tender texture that is perfect for hearty salads, sautés, and healthy smoothies. An excellent cool-weather crop, its flavor and sweetness are famously enhanced by a light frost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you'll love\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeautiful, deeply savoyed, dark green leaves add texture and drama to the garden.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA rich, robust flavor that is a favorite of chefs and home cooks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExceptionally cold-tolerant, with flavor improving after a frost.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA \"cut-and-come-again\" plant that provides a long and productive harvest.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSeed details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlant Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black Magic Kale (Brassica oleracea)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeed Quantity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 250 seeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Heirloom, Non-GMO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLifecycle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Biennial, typically grown as an annual.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24-36 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSDA Zone:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2-11\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e American Grown\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eGrowing instructions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSowing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Start seeds indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost, or direct sow outdoors in early spring or late summer for a fall crop.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDepth:\u003c\/strong\u003e Plant seeds 1\/4 inch deep.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpacing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Space or thin plants to 12-18 inches apart.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight Requirement:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full Sun to Light Shade.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil:\u003c\/strong\u003e Prefers fertile, well-draining soil.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHarvest:\u003c\/strong\u003e Begin harvesting outer leaves when they reach a usable size, allowing the center to continue growing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 128, 0);\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHey, you.
