My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Sowing Ornamental Kale for Fall/Winter

21 years ago

Has anyone in Zone 7 grown Ornamental Cabbage or Kale from seed? I want to plant early enough for full effect in Mid-October through December. (But not so early it bolts) When is the best time?
