What is the name of a plant that looks like cabbage and flowers in the fall?

Answer 1

If it looks like heads of cabbage but has either white or purple center leaves surrounded by green leaves, then I agree with flowering cabbage or flowering kale. Here's a photo of flowering kale and some info on its uses:

If it has cabbage-y leaves about 2-3 inches across but gets tall spikes with flat flowers in the fall, it might be autumn sedum. Here's a photo of one variety -- others get orange or red flowers and some have variagated leaves:

Zoe - Dahlia (means Elegance and Dignity) Harriet - Sage (Wisdom and Respect) Bridget - Zinnia (Affection) Charlotte - Juniper (Chastity and Eternity) Shannen - Iris (Wisdom and Valor) Lybbie (Libby) - Camellia Kikkan (Kee-kun) - Violet Aislyn (Ashlyn) - Lavender You could change the middle names around a bit, but those are a few ideas =] Acacia - ★Lucia ★Cassandra ★Melanie ★Rebecca ★Brooke ★Abigail ★Gabrielle Boy flower names: Oleander (Ollie as a nick name?), Solidago....I don't know many more. I really like Oleander though =] For a boy, try not to pick anything ending with 'ia' because that tends to be a bit more feminine.

River & Jasper are also considered boys nature names :)

Last time I was at the supermarket, the cashier picked up my head of radicchio and punched in the code for red cabbage. The price came up as 70 cents.
I said, "Actually, that's radicchio, not red cabbage."

She voided it and punched in the correct code for radicchio. The new price came up as $5.50.

"Wow! That's expensive!" she said. "You should just get the red cabbage instead."

Get the red cabbage instead? Is she serious?

So what's behind this $5 difference between red cabbage and radicchio? Is it cabbage inflation? Is the Mafia getting kickbacks on radicchio sales?

No.

Red cabbage and radicchio may resemble one another, but when it comes to flavor, they're as different as traditional broccoli and bitter broccoli rabe. So what is the difference between radicchio and red cabbage?

Radicchio (pronounced ra-DEEK-ee-o) is a leafy member of the chicory family, often called Italian chicory, which explains its bold, bitter flavor. Although it's compact like red cabbage, radicchio's leaves are thinner and more tender unlike red cabbage's firm and waxy texture.

Red cabbage is a variety of cabbage with reddish-purple leaves. Its flavor and texture is similar to green cabbage.

When you're at the supermarket, here's how to tell the difference between radicchio and red cabbage:

Radicchio is burgundy-red with white streaks. It's light when you hold it in your hand and soft to the touch. The price ranges from $3 to $6 a pound.

Red cabbage is actually more purple than red and is uniform in color. It's heavy, firm and has a waxy finish. The price is typically under $1 a pound.

Both have their places in the kitchen, but just remember, they are not interchangeable. Red cabbage is best in slaws or simply slow-cooked and served with pork or beef. Radicchio is wonderful raw in salads, grilled and used as a pizza topping or sauteed and tossed with pasta.

When you want a bold Italian salad, go with radicchio. Due to its bitterness, radicchio pairs best with sweet, salty and acidic ingredients such as oranges, prosciutto and balsamic vinegar. That's why this early spring Radicchio and Orange Salad with Citrus-Champagne Vinaigrette is so pleasing.
