Weedy lot where a house burned down Feb 17, 2013; disturbed organic soil and sand on dirt pile slope; growing with Lamium purpureum, Ranunculus repens, weeds. Kale; biennial starting to form flower buds, leaves glaucous grey-green with purple flushed margins and veins, rather thick, tender, juicy and surprisingly rather sweet; probably persisting from old garden plantings though this area was a driveway pad.
