Unidentified Plant

I did not do very well with a fall garden this year. I planted collards twice and never really grew anything. Something ate the cabbage and kale. I did get some lovely cauliflower. Suddenly a couple weeks ago, I realize something is growing alongside my kitchen stairs. I'm not sure what it is. I must have dropped a few seeds?? They are about 6-8 inches tall. My thoughts are it is something in the collards - broccoli- cabbage family.

Sorry it has a sort of odd shadow, I did not see this morning when I snapped it.

It does look like something in the cabbage family, but I have no idea what. Hopefully someone will recognize it. Or, it can be your experiment - take pics periodically and keep us updated as it grows, and hopefully as it matures it will give you your answer!

It could be collard.

That would be my first guess as well, VJ.

If it were cabbage or broccoli, I think you'd be seeing heads forming by now.
