Oh I know the difference between those 2, I've grown both. I've
just been trying to figure which cole crop Marie is growing. When
she first mentioned a curly leaved cabbage I thought of the
savoy, but then in her next message she mentioned it didn't head
and then I decided it might be kale. Guess I'll see when I next
hear from Marie. I grow mustard too, well I grow something
called mustard spinach, it's supposed to be much milder than
regular mustard. I'm not a southerner and haven't acquired a
taste for the strong greens. The mustard I grow doesn't have
curly leaves, looks more like turnip greens I guess. I've seen
pictures of mustard with curly leaves also.
