I've spotted several cabbage plants growing in the garden! Wonderful,
but I didn't plant them! We had a bird seed spillage earlier in the
year - didn't see anything that sounded cabbagey on the list though.
Although I don't know what dari is!


I've seen a variety of some cabbage growing wild on the south coast of
England. It looked strange seeing it growing there, somehow out of place
growing on the beach. It must have a high salt tollerance.


That is a real wild cabbage, I've seen it growing as far north as Scotland.

And eaten it :-)
