Kale, Dazzling Blue Lacinato
(Brassica oleracea var. acephala)

Dazzling Blue Lacinato Kale is a striking open-pollinated kale known for its deeply textured blue-green leaves and vibrant purple midribs. Developed for improved cold tolerance and strong garden performance, this variety combines the rich flavor of traditional lacinato kale with exceptional vigor. Both productive and ornamental, it adds bold color and dependable harvests to cool-season gardens.

Key Characteristics

  • Deep Blue Leaves with Purple Stems
    Heavily savoyed blue-green leaves are accented by vivid purple midribs and stems. The contrast creates a dramatic appearance in garden beds and edible landscapes.
  • Rich Flavor & Tender Texture
    Leaves have the classic hearty flavor of lacinato kale. Young leaves are tender enough for salads, while mature leaves are excellent for sautéing, soups, roasting, and greens dishes.
  • Improved Cold Tolerance
    Bred for enhanced winter hardiness, Dazzling Blue performs well in cold weather and becomes sweeter after frost. Ideal for fall and extended winter harvests.
  • Vigorous & Productive Plants
    Upright plants produce abundant leaves over a long growing season. Harvest outer leaves regularly to encourage continued growth.
