The surviving plants of a hard cold spell were the parents of this open-pollinated variety. Purple Reign was selected by the Organic Seed Alliance for its cold hardiness, sprout quality, and productivity. Seed in a greenhouse or directly in the ground in July. Plants will overwinter and produce sprouts in April.
