'Ornamental' cabbage


I know that in the grand scheme of things this doesn't matter at all.
And I know that we all have different taste.
And I apologise in advance to anyone with a garden full......


.....but I hate those mauve or cream and green alleged 'ornamental' cabbage which are sold as providing attractive colour in the winter garden. I'd rather have bare earth!

Anybody else, or is it just me? (again
)

Re: 'Ornamental' cabbage


To be honest DM, I wouldn't know an ornamental cabbage if it jumped up and hit me in the face Not very green fingered here

Re: 'Ornamental' cabbage


Not something to get very agitated about, but I saw a 'display' in a border earlier and it just reminded me how I dislike them
But, as I said earlier - it doesn't matter!

Re: 'Ornamental' cabbage


I suppose they 'fill a gap' in the winter garden so that the cat's can't scratch it up
