Some people have had luck with them in zone 7. Best bet would be to find a way to cover them or take cuttings and root them in case the plant does not survive. **Q: How large of a container would you recommend ? Thanks** A: I would recommend a one gallon container. You can always keep potting it up as the roots fill out. **Q: I'm in los angeles area, is late Jan, early Feb a good time to start these? Do they come with some leaves too, or just stalks?** A: In your climate that is a great time to start them. The cuttings come exactly as pictured. You don’t want any leaves because that actually slows down the rooting process. They will grow new leaves when they are ready to. In your climate there will probably be new leaves on them starting within week after putting them in a container. **Q: What kind of fertilizer is used for the tree callards? And what kind of potting soil is used?** A: We recommend the highest quality potting soil you can afford if the Tree Collard is going to be in a container. Black Gold Organic is great and we also like Recipe 420 by EB Stone. It is hard to say what is available in your area. Mixing in some worm castings in a container is a great idea once the cuttings are rooted. Long term, tree collards would appreciate an application 1x-2x a year of ground Calcium (fine oyster shells) and Rock Dust (Glacial, Basalt, or Azomite) This helps put minerals back into the soil. Because Tree Collards are a long-lived perennial, they could use that replenishment. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality cuttings *by K***S on February 6, 2018* Healthy cuttings! Already growing! Be sure to have good potting soil and 3 large flower pots on hand for when they arrive. Update: 4/16/18: The plant I transplanted outside during cold weather is still alive and purple but has not grown much. I hope it will have a growth spurt soon. It is a deep purple color. The other 2 I kept inside (due to cold weather) were healthy for quite a while (green color) but then suddenly died and dried up. I think they needed more sunlight. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not as expected but fine *by J***C on April 18, 2019* So I got three cuttings and only one has started to grow with vigor. But they are alive. They have enough life in them to spring back after USPS goofed up and held them. They look like my pics which the seller should think about updating and they could have set a better expectation and got 5 stars. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rooted in water! Great operation with plenty of tips and tricks. *by T***R on April 18, 2016* I got these rooted in water. It was super easy and took less than a month.If you have never rooted something in water here are the steps:1) Make sure to have a sharp, angled cut at the base of the stalk. Some people then dip the end in rooting hormone but I have never needed it for leafy green things as they tend to like to sprout new roots anyways. (this has worked for lemongrass, onions, sweet potatoes and others for me).2) Place in a jar/glass of clean water. You don't need to fill it to the top by any means, just a few inches at the bottom. A clear glass is best so that you can see any new root growth or dirty water, but not necessary. You can reuse pasta jars or whatever you have around.3) Place near a window that gets some light but not direct glaring afternoon sun, or under grow lights. A lot of sun is not necessary, but I found that plants near some kind of light source fair better with rooting than those just in the middle of our house.4) Remember to replace the water in the jar daily or at least every few days. You will start to notice that the plants aren't wilting, and you may even notice new leaf growth. The next part you will notice is roots coming out the bottom.5) Keep replacing the water daily or every few days. This is really the most important part as dirty water will let mold and other contaminants sicken the plants and they will die. You can get away will less sunlight if you just stick to clean water and you should still find success.Mine are in a pot all together now, as my space is limited until I make sure they are rooted and growing. They are putting out some new leaves now. All 3 are alive, which is wonderful. I plan to keep one, give another to my cousin and plant the third at a homeless shelter who is forming a garden. These plants can last a very long time and you can continue to get new cuttings from them. They are a WONDERFUL source of nutrition and here in Tampa, FL we can grow them year round.I loved that this company has a Youtube channel with a few videos showing the plants, how to root them in soil, how to prune them etc. and that they included this information in the package was brilliant. It will be very helpful to a lot of people just starting out with such a plant. You can always look on the side of the page when watching their videos and see how other people grow their tree collards.I am greatly looking forward to the future with these plants and am incredibly pleased with how they arrived and how well they rooted. Looking forward to tasting them soon! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/69196172-three-purple-tree-collard-cuttings](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/69196172-three-purple-tree-collard-cuttings) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-03*
