'Ornamental' cabbage

[dinahsmum]

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 http://www.dogweb.co.uk/talkdogs/images/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif )

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

[Moli]

Must admit DM, I don't like them either!!!

[Mags]

I can take them or leave them DM.....that's how interested I am in them :)

[dinahsmum]

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 :roll:
But, as I said earlier - it doesn't matter! :cat21

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

[samwise]

I feel the same as you! Dont like them at all!

[EmmaG]

Nope I don't like them either, they look very "odd"

[Jac]

I dont like them either or the ornimental broccoli either or is it the same?

[yola]

I quite like them, nice colours and an interesting shape . . . *runs for cover and dodges rotten cabbage leaves* :-D

Not sure that i have any really strong feelings on either "alleged 'ornamental' cabbage" nor "bare earth".
AstroTurf, now yer talking.......

I do like white cabbage with butter n black pepper,
on thee subjct of 'bare......' ii'm staying away from the issue of nudity!!!!
