So age has some advantages
Thank God, cause I'm not getting younger

I have been meaning to ask you .. why do you call it a 'cabbage catt' ?
I have never heard it used before ..
except by you

Or, are Cabbage Catts just the really floofy ones? It's lovely Des. Nice job growing!

Yes, they are large and floofy and unless you stake them just right ,before the flower "sets" , they will flop forwards or backwards spoiling its shape . I sometimes have to use cotton wool to hold the petals open.
