Ornamental Kale
These are the fanciest cabbages you'll ever see. Most of your customers won't recognize them as brassicas, but they grow in the same conditions. They are frost tolerant and a great way to bulk up those late season bouquets.
We planted them in late May on our farm in Vermont, and they are colored up and harvestable around the middle of September. Growers in warmer areas will often plant in the fall for late winter/early spring harvest. Cool weather is necessary to get the colors to develop.
Colors will vary with conditions. There may be little difference between pink, rose, and red. White will blush pink in some conditions.

Grown in a 128 cell tray, billed as 125
About Tray Sizes (please read)
210 and 125 cell trays are full-sized trays, and three of these will fit in a shipping box.
50 cell trays are half-sized trays (unless otherwise noted) and two of these are the equivalent of one full sized tray. Six of these will fit in a shipping box. These trays are long and skinny. (Think hotdogs). There are not compatible with 25 cell half trays. Scoop scabiosa, veronica, solidago, gypsophila, hypericum, herbs, some tweedia, and others are grown in the 50 cell tray.
25 cell half trays are also half-sized trays, but they are short and square. (Think hamburgers). These are not compatible with 50 cell half trays. Limonium and astrantia are grown in this tray.
Gerberas are also grown in a 25 cell half tray, but are tall that the others, and FOUR of these half trays of gerberas fills a box.
18 and 32 cell trays are full sized trays specifically for our vernalized perennials. These have their own set of shipping rules (find details HERE) and cannot be combined with items grown in 210, 125, or 50 cell trays.
