Can anyone tell me how to collect the seeds from flowering kale? I have some really beautiful colors and varieties and would like to start my own next year.

Gingerpeachy, welcome to the garden helper. I don't have your answer, but I do think you will have a better chance of getting the information you are after if I move your question to the plants and flowers section. in the meantime, welcome again, and enjoy your time with us!

Hey GingerPeachy!!!!
I too don't have an answer but wanted to
stop by and say hi!!!
Glad to have you here!!!
I'm pretty sure someone might be able
to give you an answer, maybe Bill,
Papito, Nikkal, someone may know...

I think those are pretty plants too.
Nice color and takes cool weather well.

Well, stick around, someone may have an
answer for you!!!

Feel free to take a peak around, and answer/ask all the questions you'd like....

....HI......Here is a link to a page that will give you more information on saving your seeds. Kale actually form pods that you can harvest the seeds from.

We just bought two ornamental kale yesterday. Aren't they beautiful? Ours are the purpley ones. I love the ruffles.
