Bring a burst of fresh flavour and vibrant colour to your garden with the Thompson and Morgan Emerald Ice Kale Seeds, delivering sweet, crisp leaves with stunning white centres from autumn through spring when other crops are scarce. You'll love harvesting this winter-hardy variety, perfect for home gardeners who want delicious, vitamin-rich greens with minimal fuss. This packet contains approximately 20 seeds and comes with easy-to-follow growing instructions, so you'll enjoy tasty leaves and even edible stalks from October to April. Whether planted in sun or semi-shade, 'Emerald Ice' thrives in well-prepared, fertile soil and offers a rewarding crop when you need it most. Sow Kale seed from March to June. Direct sow outdoors into a well-prepared seedbed for transplanting to their final positions later on. Sow at a depth of one centimetre and a distance of 23cm between rows. Kale plants can be transplanted to their final positions approximately five weeks from sowing. Grow kale in firm, rich, fertile, well-drained soil in sun or semi shade. Prepare the soil in early spring by adding plenty of well-rotted farmyard manure to the soil to improve its structure and fertility. Apply lime to acid soils to reduce the acidity and lessen the risk of clubroot. When transplanting kale, plant it slightly deeper in the ground than it was in the seedbed.
