Award-Winning Red-Colored Ornamental Kale for Cool Seasons
Bring bold color and glossy texture to your cool-season garden with the Glamour Red Ornamental Kale, the first kale to ever win an All-America Selections award. This standout variety forms a tight, feathery rosette of dark green leaves with a vivid red center, perfect for making a statement in fall and winter landscapes.
Unlike other ornamental brassicas, Glamour Red features waxless, glossy foliage that reflects light and intensifies its rich coloring. Its compact, dwarf habit makes it a natural fit for containers, borders, and seasonal displays.
Glamour Red is also cold-hardy, low-maintenance, and pest-resistant. This variety performs well in cooler temperatures and holds its color deep into the season. This kale thrives in zones 3-6 as an Annual, or zones 7-11 as a Biennial. It’s ideal for high-traffic areas where you want a long-lasting pop of vivid color.
Whether paired with pansies and grasses or used as a solo accent, Glamour Red is a showstopper in any garden. Get the award-winning Glamour Red Ornamental Kale today!
Planting & Care
1. Planting: Choose a location with full sun to part shade and well-draining soil. Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and just as deep. Place the plant so the top of the root ball sits slightly above ground level. Backfill with soil, gently firm it in, and water thoroughly to settle.
2. Watering: Keep soil consistently moist but not soggy, especially after planting. Once established, ornamental kale is somewhat drought-tolerant and prefers to dry slightly between waterings.
3. Fertilizing: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer at planting. A light feeding once or twice during the growing season will keep foliage lush and vibrant.
4. Pruning: No pruning is necessary. Remove any yellowing outer leaves as needed to maintain a tidy appearance.
