Daubenton’s Variegated Perennial Kale (Brassica oleracea var. acephala)

Daubenton’s Variegated Perennial Kale is a rare and beautiful variety of branching kale with thick, slightly crinkled green leaves edged in creamy white. It forms a bushy, multi-stemmed plant that grows larger each season and continues producing tender leaves without ever going to seed. Its ornamental appeal makes it equally suited to edible borders and display beds.

Daubenton’s Variegated Perennial Kale is a rare and beautiful variety of branching kale with thick, slightly crinkled green leaves edged in creamy white. It forms a bushy, multi-stemmed plant that grows larger each season and continues producing tender leaves without ever going to seed. Its ornamental appeal makes it equally suited to edible borders and display beds.

The leaves are mild and cabbage-like, ideal for steaming, stir-frying, soups, or raw in salads when young. Harvest from the outside in a cut-and-come-again fashion, and the plant will continue to thrive and regrow throughout the year, even through frosts in many climates.

Unlike annual brassicas, Daubenton’s kale doesn’t flower or bolt under normal conditions, making it one of the most reliable sources of leafy greens in a low-maintenance, perennial food garden. Rare, productive, and visually striking, this is a true standout among permaculture plants and can be propagated from stem cuttings.

FAQs

We hope our FAQ’s help, but if you need any further information please don’t hesitate to get in touch!

We can only send orders to other parts of mainland GB due to strict regulations for the sending of plant materials and sadly we do not have the capacity to fill in phytosanitary certificates.

As we are a small business we currently have one packing day a week, and so expect your delivery within 2 weeks from ordering your plants.

At this moment in time we are not open for visits to the nursery, however if you come on a volunteer day or in-person course with Huw or Sam at Dan Yr Onnen you can of course then see the nursery and purchase plants in person.

Because working with plants can be an unpredictable business, for simplicity we do not offer pre-orders on all products however we may occasuinally open certain orders for pre orders and these will be clearly marked. The best time to know that we have restocked is to join our mailing list followed by looking out for updates on our Instagram.

We have decided to focus on growing plants 100% naturally without the limitations of going with organic certification. No artificial pesticides, fungicides, or anyother-icides are used on site.
