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.

I've seen what I've assumed to be a wild form of Brassica oleraceus
(yellow-flowered crucifers tend to look similar) growing just above the
beach on the coast of Galloway.

White-flowered ones can be non-trivial to identify, too :-)

I know; I've currently got a Lepidium awaiting identification.
