Ornamental Cabbages are always so lovely this time of year, and I found this one...just a run-of-the-mill type without too much extra "fancy" on it and thought it deserved a chance at gracing a desktop.

♥PJ 005

NOTE: I'm not sure what category this should really be put into..any suggestions would be appreciated!!!

I'd probably put it into something closer to flowers..as it's ornamental..but who knows! lol

I love this..it's got a wonderful colour and great veins..I find many people don't like these ornamental cabbages but I think they are wonderful.
Great clear shot :)

Now, this one is such pretty colors. I love the blue and purple together. I think these are so nice for fall because of their color and their size. I like the way you filled the frame with it.
