Kale belongs to a group of cabbage (Brassica oleracea) cultivars grown for their edible leaves, although some are used as ornamentals. The central leaves do not form a head (as with headed cabbage). One may differentiate between kale varieties according to the low, intermediate, or high length of the stem, along with the variety of leaf types. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kale)

Botanically, a pod refers to a specific type of fruit or seed-bearing structure that develops from the ovary of a flowering plants. Typically found in plants of the Fabaceae family, such as peas and beans, but not exclusively. Pods are characterized by their elongated shape and a seam running along one side. They usually contain multiple seeds embedded within the pod walls. (AGROVOC Team)
Note
The terms "pods" and "seed pods" can be used interchangeably to refer to structures that enclose and protect seeds. However, "pods" is more general and can encompass various types of structures, while "seed pods" specifically emphasizes the function of enclosing and dispersing seeds. Examples of plants beyond the Fabaceae family that produce pods include vanilla orchids, cacao, and certain species of acacia trees.
