Bulldog Hybrid Collards
Very fast re-growth when bunch-cut.
A new Georgia-type introduction, replaces Georgia (Georgia Southern) and Top Bunch. Bulldog is more upright than either Georgia or Top Bunch. Brilliant deep green leaf color. Can be stripped from bottom leaves up, or cut for bunching. If cut, it has very fast re-growth. We're not sure about bolting yet, but it won't likely be worse than Georgia or Top Bunch, the two varieties with the worst bolt resistance, and since it matures 1 1/2 weeks earlier than Georgia it may beat some of the bolt inducing heat. (Georgia Southern is an old-time favorite across the South, with gardeners accepting its tendency to bolt early as inevitable.) We believe the hybrid vigor of Bulldog makes it a superior choice to either Georgia or Top Bunch. If you are used to growing Georgia or Top Bunch, Bulldog is definitely worth a try. 71 DAYS.
