This is not your ordinary collard greens! An interesting heirloom donated to SSE in 1989 by Ralph Blackwell of Alabama whose family grew it for over a hundred years. Large blue-green leaves with purple stems and veins are sweet and tender. Blue and green colors become more intense after frost. Very good eating qualities.
