Kale
Tronchuda

Exceptionally tender and heat-tolerant brassica with a mild, sweet flavor, yet uniquely sensitive to frost.

About Tronchuda

This Portuguese brassica features large, paddle-shaped, blue-green leaves with prominent white veins, forming a loose-headed plant resembling collards. Prized for its exceptionally tender texture and mild, sweet, cabbage-like flavor, it can be enjoyed raw in salads or cooked where it develops a spinach-like consistency. While exhibiting outstanding heat tolerance for extended harvests, this variety is distinct from other kales in its complete intolerance to frost.
