Narrative

Anecdotal Info from owner: James is a white man, 66 years old. He says the trunk on these is thicker than on ordinary collards plants - up to 4 inches thick!! These were saved by James' father, R. L. Alexander, born 1908, died 1985, who grew many vegetables on his farm just outside Laurel and before he died left these seed to James, requesting that they be maintained somehow. James is not a gardener, so he has given portions of this seed to various friends, who grow them in the Jones County area and like them. James is owner and operator of a small local shoe store in downtown Laurel, called Rose Slipper Shop.
