Hi ChristinaJo,
My favorite Kale is actual one of their cousins, Collards, "George Southern" or "Creote". This variety of Collards grows well up here in Wisconsin, but the name implies it should grow well in the south. It has large dark blue green leaves that grow open headed and are best when used before the leaves get to full size.
