Cabbage flower

Once, toys known as Cabbage patch kids were the rage amongst children. I never bought my kids any of these toys because I thought kids were better off playing with cute teddy bears than with toys that came from cabbage patches. Anyway, my kids grew up well without those toys that did not come cheap. These cabbage flowers were part of a floral display that I saw inside a building. This is my flower for today's post. I am quite pleased with the performance of my camera. 
Cabbage flowers in the US - I took photos of these cabbages years ago.

I think I took one such photo at Fullerton Hotel. They too had this cabbage flower for their floral display. I thought the centre part of the cabbage was dyed purple.

Alice, I hope that they are not dyed although that is possible. I have uploaded three photos of cabbages with lilac coloured centres. These were growing on the ground and the colours are natural.
