I've always loved Ornamental Kale... since I was a little kid... and my Dad and Grandpa would plant it in the field next to the greenhouse... (where we grew Glads, Delphinium, Babies Breath and Zinnias)...I loved the way as the Nights got shorter and the air got cooler the colors would intensify... and before frost... I would cut those "Colorful Cabbage" and get them into arrangements...Times have certainly changed... and Sun Valley Group is the expert on "Brassica" or ornamental kale... a form of Cabbage! Also part of the Mustard Family...This week on Fun with Flowers and J... we show you how easy it is to make an arrangement out of 3 Brassica... and share some of the cool varieties that Sun Valley has to offer... they're spectacular...What I would have given for that extra stem length that SVG provides us today with their hybrids...I've even cooked up a Glitter Effect and used Stemmed Cotton as a Accessory... along with the Soil Grown Tulips from Sun Valley in Arcata!So... Yes... I've gone CRAZY for Brassica... (across the pond... in England...) by Friend Linda says "gone Cabbage"...  and I've done that to... Crazy for Cabbage... Brassica from Sun Valley!Check out FUN with Flowers and J on Monday... the NEW Video is Free... but ONLY on Monday... or You can  subscribe to uBloom.com (it's only .08 cents a day... hehehe)... and NEVER miss another Premiere... plus you have unlimited access to the entire uBloom Video archive of over 400 uBloom HOW To Arrange Flowers Videos!
