Hailing from Siberia, Red Russian is extremely hardy, surviving temperatures to 10 below F! A lovely addition to salads as a baby leaf and a very productive adult plant for braising. Deep green leaves with purple veining become darker and sweeter after frosts. The variety dates back to the 19th century. \u003cbr\u003e55 days.
