There's a volunteer Red Russian kale plant in my garden. I have no idea how it got there: my best guess is that there may have been a seed in some compost that I used. But even that doesn't quite make sense when I try to reconcile the timing of when it first appeared.
Even though it's a mature plant now, I'm a little scared to harvest it and eat it. (What if I'm wrong and it's not really Red Russian kale, but something else that looks exactly like it and happens to be toxic?)
It started to bolt during the recent heat wave. Better act quickly, if I'm going to enjoy it.
