If you love growing food that looks as good as it tastes, you'll adore Bonnie Plants Blue Collards in your garden. A cool-season vegetable that tastes sweetest after frost, blue collards add fabulous flavor to garden-to-table meals during chilly seasons. Plus, the pretty bluish leaves look lovely in your fall or spring gardens. Typically paired with black-eyed peas as a traditional New Year's meal but collards make a great addition to recipes year-round. Add the greens to soups or stews, shred them in casseroles, simmer with pork, use young leaves in salads or wraps--or puree them for a delicious pesto. Blue collards need full sunlight and prefer cool temperatures for best flavor, so plant them in spring or fall. Space collards 24 to 36 inches apart, and plant in well-drained, nutrient-rich Miracle-Gro soil. The plant grows 24 to 36 inches tall and matures in 35 to 45 days. Be sure to water your plant when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch, and feed it regularly with Miracle-Gro plant food. With more than 100 years of experience, Bonnie Plants easy-to-grow varieties create culinary inspiration, adding delicious flavors, textures, and colors to your garden-to-table meals.
