Grow a Southern garden favorite right at home.
Bring a classic leafy green to your garden with our Georgia Southern Creole Collard Seedling. Known for its large, tender blue-green leaves and dependable production, Georgia Southern Creole is a traditional collard variety that has long been a favorite in Southern gardens.
Collards are a wonderful choice for raised beds, containers, and traditional vegetable gardens. Harvest individual outer leaves throughout the season while allowing the center of the plant to continue growing for an extended harvest.
Each seedling is started from organic seed and grown using organic potting soil and organic fertilizer before being carefully prepared for its journey to your garden.
Our seedlings are grown in small batches, so each plant receives the time and attention it needs before leaving Gateway Vegan.
What You'll Receive
Choose between:
1 Georgia Southern Creole Collard Seedling
or
4 Georgia Southern Creole Collard Seedlings Bundle
Each plant arrives growing in its own 2.6-inch black nursery pot with an established root system.
Because every seedling is a living plant, natural variations in size, color, leaf shape, and appearance should be expected.
Planting Guide
Sun: Full sun, ideally 6+ hours daily. Some afternoon shade can be beneficial during warmer weather.
Spacing: Approximately 18–24 inches between plants
Water: Keep soil consistently moist but not soggy. Regular, even watering encourages healthy leaf production.
Soil: Plant in fertile, well-draining soil rich in organic matter.
Season: Collards are a cool-season vegetable that perform especially well during the milder temperatures of fall, winter, and spring, depending on your growing region.
Growing conditions and planting dates vary by location. We recommend checking your local growing zone and planting calendar before ordering.
Harvesting
Georgia Southern Creole collards are perfect for a continuous harvest.
Once the plant is established and producing sufficiently sized leaves, harvest the larger outer leaves first while leaving the smaller center leaves intact. The plant can continue producing new leaves from the center for future harvests.
Use a clean knife or garden shears to remove leaves near the base without damaging the main growing point.
Enjoy your homegrown collards sautéed, braised, added to soups and stews, incorporated into grain bowls, or prepared in your favorite traditional recipes.
Grown With Care
Our seedlings are grown using organic seeds, organic potting soil, and organic fertilizer.
Our plants are not USDA Certified Organic. "Organic" refers specifically to the growing inputs used to produce the seedlings.
Live Plant Shipping
To help your seedlings arrive as healthy as possible, live plants ship on Mondays and Tuesdays only.
Orders placed after 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time on Tuesday will ship the following Monday. If Monday falls on a shipping holiday, orders will ship Tuesday.
We may delay shipment during extreme heat, freezing temperatures, severe weather, or other conditions that could compromise plant health.
Please open your package promptly after delivery and allow your seedling time to recover from its journey before transplanting.
Grown with care. From seed to you.
Plant it. Love it. Watch it grow.
