So...does "ornamental" mean you can't make cole slaw with these?

I just keep coming back to look at these!
They are so cool!
I saw one of these (I think) in one of Melcon's photos awile back, and I thought it looked so neat.

Bill,

I just bought 2 of these. Are they like an annual? What should I do with them in the spring?

The kale is an annual. I have started it from seed in the spring. Those are beautiful plants in the photos. I have never eaten the Kale, it is to pretty to chop up for a salad. In the fall when the weather gets cold here the Kale plants color gets deeper & richer. [flower]
