Kale 'Nero di Toscana' (Brassica oleracea var. acephala), also known as Tuscan kale, Lacinato kale, or Dinosaur kale, is an Italian heirloom variety prized for its dark green, heavily blistered, strap-like leaves. It has a rich, slightly sweet flavor that improves after frost. This hardy, cold-tolerant kale thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, producing tender, nutrient-rich leaves ideal for soups, sautés, and salads. Attractive and productive, it's a staple in traditional Italian cuisine.
