White Russian Kale (Brassica napus) – Non-GMO, Open-Pollinated, Heirloom

White Russian kale was first developed in the 1980s by pioneering American horticulturist Frank Morton, who selected it as a white-veined alternative to the ever-popular Red Russian kale in his Oregon garden. Known for its cold hardiness, sweet flavor, and jagged leaf shape, this variety has become a reliable favorite for gardeners seeking tender baby greens, nutritious microgreens, or full-size kale leaves.
