    Flowering kale may be a "flower wannabe" but they do brighten up the winter landscape, don't they? In upstate New York, we have nothing in bloom outdoors right now but in February f 2011, I visited Brooklyn (two zones higher than us) and saw a lot of flowering kales used in the urban landscapes. Happy GBBD.

    What lovely colors in your garden! I'm hoping some volunteer violas will germinate after the rains; it is one of my favorites.
