What Do You Do When Your Tree Collards Bloom?

[@Fluvienne]

I love the calls of your baby dragons in the background.

Ditto @Linda the Old Bird! I bought tree collard seeds from you, Sequoiah, two years ago; planted them, and I've been VERY pleased with the results. They have huge leaves and taste delicious, and everyone I've shared them with enjoy them too. This spring is the first time they've bloomed and I wasn't sure what to do. At first I cut off the flower heads and used them as broccoli. Well, that just made them laugh at me and kick production into overdrive. Hahaha! I haven't been able to keep up since. Lol!! Thank you for this very timely video. Much appreciated!

[@projecttreecollard]

wonderful to hear

[@suellenbonga7004]

Thank you! I love your manner of explaining. It was just what I needed! I hope your method works well in Switzerland.

[@projecttreecollard]

Thx!

I have a Jolly Green Tree Collard and a Dinosaur Tree Collard in bloom in Tucson Arizona from seeds I bought from you! Yeah!

[@paige.eats.plants1887]

My cuttings seem to be doing well, hopefully they continue to do so. I’m so excited to get them in the ground soonish. I cut them each in half so I could give some to a local community garden and some friends. I’ve been talking them up to basically anyone who’ll listen lol. Most that I talk to haven’t heard of them but think they are super cool. I’ve been shouting out your website to some too. We need these in every neighborhood. 💜

[@projecttreecollard]

You know I agree wholeheartedly;) tree collards should be all over the place

[@dlhewitt2873]

This is my first year growing tree collards. Thank you for this valuable information. Glad I found your channel.

[@ELRenaud]

A week ago I had never heard of tree collards. Today I ordered 4 cuttings from you and can't wait (but I will) until they arrive. I've also learned a lot from your videos. As an amateur prepper I like to find perennials in fruit and vegetables. Fortunately I like collards and heard they are also a great fertilizer.

[@projecttreecollard]

Welcome to the world of tree collards!

[@lynnehopwood834]

Nice!! Thanks for another great video!! I see the value of buying the cuttings or rooted cuttings vs starting from seeds. All my starts are from seeds this year. Excited to learn as they grow and buy rooted cuttings when available again

[@projecttreecollard]

yay! plants grown from seed can be REALLY valuable as well.

[@itsjustmetomc4848]

I am so glad you shared this video! My tree collards started to bloom and I wasn't sure what to do. I did however cut about 50% of them back and left the rest. The flowers make an amazing addition to the landscape here in the desert of Arizona! Shalom

[@projecttreecollard]

I'm glad you enjoyed this!

[@jennygray7081]

I just received my cuttings and mixed seed pack. I'm excited to watch them grow. This year I have a large garden planned.

[@projecttreecollard]

wonderful! tree collards are a GREAT addition to the garden.

[@LindatheOldBird]

thanks so much for sharing this with us! my collards started blooming and I didn't know what was happening nor what I should do about it. thank you again Sequoiah #ProjectTreeCollard

[@projecttreecollard]

so glad it helps Linda!

[@nancyfahey7518]

My parrot, an Australian grass keet, loooves the green seed pods. He laughs and throws kisses and dives right into his food bowl. Usually he's mad at me and tries to bite my face off.

[@projecttreecollard]

it makes sense that birds would love the green seed pods

[@SistaSarah]

Thank you so much for this information!!!

[@projecttreecollard]

you're so welcome!

[@busker153]

So, you're telling me that I can plant other brassicas near the tree collards and get all kinds of cool other things? I'm getting excited! I love our tree collards. Between that and my swiss chard, I'm all set!

[@projecttreecollard]

tree collards cross with some brassicas but not ALL of them.

[@busker153]

@@projecttreecollard My wife and I were having fun imagining all the funny crosses, like a tree collard with huge cabbages growing all over them! LOL Ok, we went a little bit Dr. Seuss, but it was fun. I am, on a more serious note, looking forward to doing some experimenting to see what kind of interesting things we can discover hiding in the intense genetics put into these amazing plants by Our Father.

[@vera5757]

Thank you for sharing 😊

[@projecttreecollard]

thx

[@talljjparis]

Very informative. Thank you!

[@projecttreecollard]

thank you!

[@bradshawjoel]

Thanks!

[@projecttreecollard]

You bet!

[@WarmFuzzyVibes]

Thank you for the video! I just received my purple tree collard seeds feom you and I will plant them next August since fall is our best time to grow brassicas. I am looking forward to that. Truthfully, I will probably germinate a couple seeds soon (early January) because I am so eager to grow these! I am curious what characteristics they will have: if they are purple, have flat or curly leaves, etc.

[@projecttreecollard]

if you wait until March or April it would be best probably

[@nhanetjean]

Question : if we let them bloom, do they die after producing seeds?

[@projecttreecollard]

Not at all! Please watch the video again. Maybe I wasn't articulate enough...I was trying to show how they are perennial no matter what you do with the flowering.

[@cynthiaswinson1653]
