I've never grown kale before. However, I have now started using it
frequently since I descovered that it's good as a main ingerdient for
making green smoothies in the kitchen blender! I've also just learned that
it is very hardy, providing grens throughout the winter. So I'm keen to
grow some. I wondered if anyone can recommend a suitable variety. I'm in
the Southwest of England and my soil is very alkaline and somewhat clayey.
I don't have much growing space left, so if there is a spieces that grows
upwards, rather than outwards, that would be helpful, as long as it can
cope with strong winds.

Many thanks,

Al

I love one called cavolo de nero
