Vegetables, flowering vegetables, flowers




I do not know if they are flowers or vegetables. Indeed, they were used as flower decorations but they look like...lettuce to me??? HELP ?



Nonetheless, they are colorful and lovely as decorations.

Aaaahhhhhh, ornamental kale. Thanks, Lydia -The Perfect Pantry. Thanks for answering my curiosity. :D

    This looks like ornamental kale -- not for eating, but for decoration. Beautiful, isn't it?

    can they be eaten?

    or strictly for decoration only?

    I was going to say they look like some form of kale, but you've got your answer already :) I've never seen such colours though! So pretty.
