Daubenton's Creeping Borecole.
Chou vivace de Daubenton. Vil.
Stalk four or five feet in height or length. The leaves are nearly two feet long, deep green; the leaf-stems are long and flexible. It sometimes takes root where the stem rests upon the surface of the ground; and, on this account, has been called perennial.
The variety is hardy, and yields abundantly; though, in this last respect, it is inferior to the Thousand-headed.

The plants may be set eighteen inches apart.
