Ornamental kale plants (Brassica oleracea) are an attractive and edible variety of kale. Plants with serrated or fringed leaf margins are considered the flowering kales, which are further divided into the 'fringed leaved cultivars' (those with ruffled leaves) and the 'feather leaved cultivars' (those with more finely serrated leaves). The leaves form beautiful rosettes, lending the plat ornamental value. The kale leaves are used in a variety of food items. This plant displays bold shades of white and purple to the garden’s quiet seasons of fall and early winter. This is an ornamental plant; although the leaves can be eaten, they’re really only good for garnish or as a base for such dishes as egg salads or salad assortments. Ornamental Kale Fringed leaves mixed, also called flowering kale, rarely put out real flowers. The color is all in their extravagantly ruffled and feathered leaves.
Planting instructions
Soil should be collected in a garden pot mixed with well rotten cow dung or manure.
Broadcast the seeds over the soil bed and cover it with a thin layer of sieved sand to allow germination.
Maintain a distance of 1.0 feet between the plants.
Sprinkle little water and then as per requirement keeping the soil moist.
Flowering starts after 45-50 days post transplant which continues for 100-120 days depending on the variety.
Growing Requirements
pests
Marigolds are susceptible to damping off (Rhizoctonia solani) and pests like collar rat, Sclerotium rolfsii, Botrytis cinerea, Powdery mildew and cucumber mosaic. The major symptom for these pests is light brown spots on the lower leaves or on early seedlings. To prevent these diseases, ensure proper drainage and ventilation and avoid over watering.
soil
Sandy loamy soil with pH 5.6 to 6.5 is ideal for its cultivation.
spot
Place in a spot that receives either full sun or partial sunlight.
temperature
20-30°C
watering
Regular watering keeps the flowers healthy. You can use a water can or a water spray.
how to harvest
For harvesting marigold, loose flowers are plucked when they attain full size depending upon the variety. Flowers should generally be harvested in the morning hours. Irrigation of soil with water,before plucking, gives better flower quality. Also, plucking of flowers regularly and removal of dried flowers enhances the yield.
