Some of you had expressed interest when I mentionned there were 3 accessions of wild brassica oleacera var capitata from Russia at Grin-Canada.
Well...the seed basket is empty but Dallas, the distribution technician, will order them from Vavilov, we just hope there are still some, and I will give you news when I get them.
Meanwhile, If a gentle soul would be kind ehough to offer me some glazed collard seeds, It would be immensely appreciated....

Glazed collard seed coming right up, and how bout some baked bean and self-peeling onion seed too? (you are joking, n'est-ce pas?) Anyway, I'd love to get my paws on any of the wild capitatas that might be available...

I may have some Green Glaze seeds from last season, I'll check my seed box.
It didn't do so well here in Wales. Only one sorry little plant plant made it through the winter.
I'll let you know If I have any seed left tommorow Michel.

Mybighair, which collards do well for you in Wales? Just wondering whether that lone Green Glaze plant was an exception or not. It didn't do to well here either but neither did Georgia Southern.

I've ordered Green Glazed seed from LISP, but they haven't arrived yet. I'll let you know when they do, and forward some then Michel

Michel, I have a few seeds left and will send them out in the next day or two. I'll PM you when they are on the way.
Raymondo, I have only tried 'Green Glaze' and 'Variegated Collards', so can't offer much in comparison. But the 'Variegated Collards' did just fine.
