Brassica oleracea
Henpeck Collards is a beautiful brassica with lovely lacey leaves that are soft and tender through the heat of summer and very hardy in the rugged winter months. We are selecting our strain for overwintering in our zone 5. We have chosen from plants that survived uncovered in the field experiencing temperatures as low as -8 degrees F. The abilty to successfully overwinter is much desired because the grower can extend the harvest from their plants. You can enjoy lucious leaves throughout the summer and fall and after the winter, in early spring Henpeck will send out a flush of leaves and florets to greet you when the root cellar grows bare! We are continuing to select for robust open-air and out-of-doors overwintering quality.
