I bought this based on recommendations from a youtuber. It grew fine but we enjoyed red Russian more. As with all mi gardeners kales, it takes frost and snow and it still usable.

Black Magic Kale is very easy to grow in Northeast Georgia. I love to add it to salads. It has such a beautiful dark green color.

Haven't had a harvest yet, but it's trucking along in my fall garden.

Grew so well, the bugs invaded !!

I've tried four types of kale so far and this one is my favorite. It doesn't mean I won't experiment with others for variety, but this one is reliable and healthy. The bugs and slugs don't care for it so the leaves are mostly pristine. Once harvested, the kale stays crisp and sturdy for a long time, while the plant is ready to throw out more leaves. Easy to grow and easy to harvest!
