WEEKEND PHOTO IN NEW YORK!

September 10, 2011
  • Share

Photo by Coco of COCOCOZY

Ornamental cabbage or kale in the flower district in New York City

Took this photo in the flower district in New York last month. Don’t know what type of flowers these are but I loved them.  To me they look like cabbage leaves…but I’m sure I’m wrong.  Right?

Any one of you garden gurus know what these are?  If you know…please comment below.

Hope you have fun plans for this weekend.  I had a nice dinner last night at a new hotel in Los Angeles.  Will tell you scoop later.  Have an art event tonight and need to go try to get my dress for the Emmy Awards tailored!  The Emmy Awards are next weekend.  Did I mention I am going?!?  Woohoo!!!  Debating between two dresses and need to get the second one done before deciding.

Anyhooooo….good weekend to you!

Happy Saturday!

    Looks like some kind of cabbage to me, cabbage can be very ornamental, maybe it’s a pale version of kale 🙂

    I also vote for some variety of ornamental cabbage. Love to mix veggies with flowers though!

    It’s ornamental kale. Don’t know about over there, but here in Australia it’s quite commonly used in floral arrangements.

    Hi
    My name is Dale and I live in Australia.
    We have plants very similar to this one is various colours, we call them Ornamental Cabbage. They grow medium size with the shape of a cabbage minus the vegie inside.

    I actually have the colour you love growing. It was in a flower arrangement that I purchased for My Mum & Dad’s graveside.

    Don’t know what they are, but they would make a REALLY fantastic centerpiece!

    Too bad the Emmy’s are so soon – I would offer to make you some bling! 🙂

Before you start moving furniture, ask yourself thBefore you start moving furniture, ask yourself these three questions:
Does this improve the room’s function?
Does it create a better focal point?
Does it make the space easier to walk through?
If the answer is “no” to all three, maybe it’s just the rearranging itch talking. 😅
Save this for the next time you’re tempted to move every piece of furniture in your house.

Summer sale season is here, and we are not holding back. 👏
This is the time of year to finally grab those pieces you’ve been eyeing all season. The good news? Major markdowns are happening right now across some of the best brands.
Our tip: Shop with intention. Know your palette, know your fit, and choose pieces that work with what you already own, not just because they’re on sale.
We’ve already done the hard work and created a Summer Sale Shopping Board filled with our favorite finds. A Shopping Board is like your own storefront. It’s a curated collection of products you can shop yourself or share with others to earn when they purchase through your links.
✨ Want to make it yours?

Or grab the link here 👉 https://www.chirpyest.com/s/cocoedit/summer-sale-2026/2071?mode=share
From there, you can shop the collection, share it with your audience, earn from your recommendations, and get cashback on your own purchases. 💛

This is what happens when a home is built by people who actually know the place. 🖤

If you only have 10 minutes, focus on these three things:
1. Make the bed. It instantly makes the whole room look cleaner.
2. Fold or straighten the throw blanket and pillows.
3. Clear visible clutter from nightstands and the floor.
That’s it. Those three steps make the biggest visual impact without deep cleaning.

Black is not a bold choice. It’s a neutral, and one of the most versatile ones in design.
The rooms that get it right treat black the same way others treat white or greige: as a foundation that lets everything else breathe. The texture of the wall. The warmth of the wood. The drama of the marble. Black doesn’t compete, it amplifies.
Save this the next time someone talks you out of going dark. 🖤
