Mature leaves can reach approximately 16 inches long and 6 inches wide under favorable growing conditions, creating an impressive upright display in vegetable beds and edible landscapes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:16px;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe wide, fleshy stalks and tender leaf blades are both harvested for cooking. Its broad ribs provide an attractive presentation and substantial usable harvest, while the thick green leaves offer excellent versatility for steaming, sautéing, braising and soups. Plants are selected for strong growth, desirable eating quality and comparatively slow bolting under suitable cool-season production.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:16px;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nWell suited to spring and fall gardens, this selection can also be grown during winter in mild climates or protected structures.
