It's Ornamental Cabbage Season in the City

To think that before I moved to New York I didn't even notice ornamental cabbage! Every fall it blooms. And it's everywhere: on boulevards, in traffic islands and the centers of roundabouts, in yards, as colorful borders -- what better way to landscape? Last year I vowed to document it in some of its glory. So here, for your viewing pleasure and edification, is a bit of Brooklyn's best ornamental cabbage.
