SAKATA’S RELIABLE SEEDS 
FLOWERING KALE, mixed colors 
In young stage its leaves are green just like ordinary Kale, but in autumn 
as the weather advances remarkably beautiful colors such as white, cream, 
pink, rose, magenta, etc., begin to appear on dark green ground. 
As the plants grow, the colors become more brilliant and keep well into 
winter until late spring. 
Sakata’s strain is better in color, more compact in habit which makes it 
more suitable for pot plant than the old loose and tall growing Coleus¬ 
leaved or variegated-leaved Kale. 
Considering its conspicuous color and its marvellous keeping quality, this 
Flowering Kale should gain great popularity as pot plants for X’mas or 
New Year decoration or as bedding out plants for winter and spring 
borders. 
Cultural notes: 
Seed is sown in seed bed in April to May. Transplanted two or three 
times as they grow on. By the middle of Nov. they are planted out in 
bed lo ft. apart, or planted singly in pots using 8 or 10 in. pots. Do not 
apply too much fertilizer at the time of final shifting, as such will delay 
the coming of color. 
For other points do just as you will grow Cabbage or Kale. Where 
climate is very cold it is better to stow in a cold frame or under shed 
to ward off frost.
