According to Seed Savers Exchange Delaway was given to Owen Hughes of County Mayo, Ireland by a neighbor who had brought it from America before the 1930s. We sourced our original seed from The Irish Seed Savers organization, who got the seed from the Hughes family and has been helping preserve the tender-leaved regional variety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e*NOTE: Some people claim that this variety is Brassica oleracea, which it may be!
