    Well they are Kale strictly speaking. The recent frosts have brought out the colours. Can be eaten as well :dbgrtmb:

      Lovely John,

      Looking like a Garden & not a building site now:dbgrtmb:

      I've grown those before but mine came out looking like net curtains.

        Thanks, the lower half of my garden is taking shape now :dbgrtmb:

        The slugs haven't found them so far!

        Pigeons have taken one or two, I've got black cotton over them which helps a bit.
