These plants are usually very expensive to buy in the garden centers so I
decided to grow some from seed, they have germinated very quickly and are
growing well at the moment. Do they need any special treatment or do they
just do their own thing.


I grew ornamental kale once, in a greenhouse; left the door open, went on
holiday, returned to find cabbage white butterflies had got in and their
caterpillars had completely eaten the plants. So my advice is to cover
the plants with protective netting or fleece.
