From FEDCO:

60 days to maturity.  Open-pollinated.  A flat-leaf Siberian type, silvery green with white veining.  Similar to Red Russian, but a few inches taller, a third more productive, with larger, more serrated leaves.  Also, much hardier than Red Russian, will hold into November without protection and thrive in an unheated greenhouse, even if temperatures go down to 0°. White Russian has been harvested outdoors out of the January snow.  If season is extended, White Russian will produce new clusters of smaller tender secondary leaves from old axils.  As with other Siberian kales, flavor gets sweeter with frost.  Tested negative for BR and BL. OSSI.  Cold-hardy.  

Hardy.  Require warm temperatures to germinate (68-86° ideal) but need 60's during the seedling stage for optimal growth; higher temperatures make seedlings leggy.  Heavy feeders; for best growth, need regular moisture and 2–3' spacing.  Plant 1/4" deep, 1" apart, in rows 2' apart, early for baby greens, July for a fall crop.

Scientists say kale descends from wild cabbage, a plant found primarily on the lime cliffs of coastal Europe. Originating in Greece, kale was enjoyed for thousands of years throughout Europe where it was the most common green vegetable until the Middle Ages when cabbage became more popular.  An important crop in colder climates owing to its natural resistance to frost, kale is sweeter after exposure to cold.  One cup provides more Vitamin C than a glass of orange juice, more calcium than a cup of milk, more potassium than a banana and, per calorie, more iron than beef. Kale may be used in textured salads, steamed or braised as a side dish, mixed in omelets, lasagna, and stews, and made into chips.

Shipping and Combined Shipping

NYCfigs ships on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays.

We never 'pass the savings' of expensive shipping charges to the customer and always ship as economically as possible.  Sometimes this becomes a juggling act between cost-of-goods vs. cost-of-container vs. shipment size vs. shipping cost vs. margins.  With combined shipping, it's all in the packing and we'll always find the most inexpensive shipping method available.  But there are times when it's impossible to ship economically and we'll always let you know before paying.  The shipping for all items sold by NYCfigs will combine automatically with all other items purchased from NYCfigs.  Items that ship free can't be discounted.  In the rare instance of excess shipping charges, NYCfigs will refund after the invoice is paid.  This ensures your items are received in a timely manner.
