Plant produces a rounded or somewhat conical central head surrounded by many outer leaves creating a flower-like shape that give it one of its common names; “Winter Rose”. The leaves are creamy white to pale green with purple, red, and burgundy speckles and flecks. They have wavy, serrated edges contributing to the floral look. The flavor is a delicate balance of mild bitterness and subtle sweetness, with a tender, crisp texture.
