Perennial Collards

Since Hawaii never gets a true (cold) winter- they rarely if ever go to seed. This makes them an awesome addition to a permaculture garden in Hawaii-! This patch was planted in 2020 and is still thriving – producing pounds of leafy greens – some of the stocks are over 10 feet long! They fall and grow back vertical again walking all around this area. Another benefit is that their bright green flat leaves make them extremely easy to check for slugs / snails which can cause the lethal rat lungworm disease…!
