People may write as they like about this Kale. It is a most excellent vegetable, and when well grown, and used in its proper season, it is delicious. Mr. Turner has not said, neither has my friend Dr. Lindley said, one word too much in its favor; - I think hardly enough. I cannot avoid remarking, that I think some of the letters respecting it, which have appeared in your columns, were written rather prematurely, particularly as the writers of them had only one season's experience of the plants. Their season of usefulness had not arrived at the dates of some of them. Their perfection and usefulness can be best appreciated when other greens have vanished from wet, frost, and hardship of weather - then, and then only, can the real utility of, and benefit to be derived from, this Kale, be fully known and valued. - J. C. Lyons, Ledes-tow?i, Mullingar, Ireland.

[The above representation was engraved from a photograph of a fine plant of this Kale shown the other day to the Horticultural Society in Regent Street. It measured four feet in height from the surface of the pot, and was two feet one inch in circumference round the stem, sprouts and all. The total number of the latter was sixty-four. This was one of the most perfect specimens of this in all respects excellent winter green that we have yet seen.] - London Gardeners' Chronicle.

[This vegetable has been much commended abroad, but we have not yet seen it. - Ed].
