The leaves on the cabbage plant growing in the Ornamental Vegetable Garden in Montreal, Quebec seem to unfold around the head as the sunlight sparkles off the plant. Cabbage is a vegetable which is eaten raw or cooked with only the leafy head being edible. While the cabbage is raw, it is usually shred for salads or coleslaw, but the cooked version is often added to soups or stews.
