Black Magic Kale Seeds Heirloom Lacinato AKA Dinosaur Kale Vegetable Seeds

Black Magic is an improved cultivar of my favorite Black Tuscan lacinto kale. The leaves of Black Magic are longer (sometimes as long as 2FT) and wider, compared to Black Tuscan. Both exhibit high heat, pest, and disease tolerance. Leaves start out a grayish green color and turn darker green/blue. Lacinato kale, also called dinosaur kale, are my favorite because they tolerate a wide range of cold to hot temperatures. Leaves are thick and have a crinkled or "savoyed" effect. The leaves have a smooth texture when cooked in soups. Leaves can be harvested at the baby stage for delicious salad greens. Kale is best grown in the cooler parts of the year. Typically seeds are started 6-8 weeks before your last frost date. In the south/Florida, I start kale seeds in August (indoors) to transplant into the garden in October and grow thru fall/winter/spring. Or direct sow seeds in October. This allows the plant to grow throughout the coldest months of the year. Kale has a tendency to die once summer heat comes here in my Florida garden. However, I have noticed that lacinato kales display decent heat tolerance as it lasts longer in my garden. I had some of this variety of kale live to almost 2 years because it was growing in a spot that received afternoon shade.
