This late in October most of the displays at the Chicago Botanic Garden have been faded by frost, but even in the winter of their lives some of them still look striking. This is a ruby ball cabbage, an edible species planted at the Garden chiefly for decoration, on the roof courtyard atop the Garden's new Science Center. Deborah Abbott took the photograph.
