Ornamental Vegetables and Fall Lawn Care
Flowering Kale and Cabbage for Fall Gardens
Add drama to your fall landscape and container gardens with the distinctive colors and textures of ornamental kale and cabbage. In addition to chrysanthemums and asters, these unique vegetables extend nature’s beauty into the cooler months of autumn and even early winter. Although similar in size and color, flowering cabbage form heads with smooth edged leaves, while flowering kale form rosettes with leaves that are ruffled and almost frilly, and both actually appear as large flowers in your garden. Available in a variety of colors which become even richer as the days grow cooler, they are perfect for creating a colorful and captivating design feature of your property.
