Georgia Southern is a historic collard variety released around 1880, known for its large, blue-green, slightly crumpled leaves and mild, cabbage-like flavor. Plants reach up to 36 inches tall with an erect, spreading habit and produce juicy, tender foliage. It is heat tolerant, cold hardy, rapid growing, and slow to bolt, even in poor soil. A light frost enhances its flavor, making it a longtime favorite for traditional southern dishes.
