Most of us gardeners know that all the brassicas we grow are at least kissing cousins. Now two of them, with a little human assist, have been doing more than kissing. And if you haven't had enough kale, you are going to be really excited with the result - it's Kalette, a conventional hybrid of kale and brussels sprouts. It grows like the sprouts, but looks like little colorful kale.
Johnny's will be the source of seeds for home gardeners in the U.S. Read their press release here:

Oh - and of course the Kalettes have their own Facebook page - just search for that name.
But I still think "the Kalettes" sounds like a barbershop quartet of nutritionists.
