The way you describe the cuttings sounds just like perennial kales.
My plants are just under waist height at the moment and shooting in all directions. Its the new shoots which you tear off and shove in the ground. The slugs snails and pigeons strip off all the leaves while its getting established, and then it just keeps growing. I tend to eat the younger leaves, but Power, my Zimbabwean friend seems to use larger leaves. The taste is quite strong, but not more so than most kale. I was wondering with the English connections to Zimbabwe, whether this plant is the same as some other perennial kale people here are more familiar with. It just seems strange that this is so strongly connected to the one country and unknown elsewhere.
As this thread has resurfaced, I thought I would add this link which has a little information relating to chomolia. Several of mine are about to flower, so I may have seeds in due course. http://www.sowingnewseeds.org.uk/pdfs/Sowing%20New%20Seeds%20Newsletter%20March%202012.pdf
