Common Name: Cabbage Rose or Ornamental Cabbage
Botanical Name: Brassica
Colours: White, Pink or Purple
Origin: Western Europe, Mediterranean and some parts of Asia.
The Cabbage flower is an unusual addition to a bouquet of flowers mostly because it is not in fact a flower at all but a cabbage plant with beautifully coloured leaves. They thrive in cool weather and are in season in late autumn and winter. Their popularity as a cut flower has increased exponentially in recent years due to its durability and distinguished appearance. Strangely Brassica are an edible plant but not as tasty as their well known cousin, the common cabbage.
