Default Name this Asian Green...

I reckon it's Gai Laan/Chinese Broccoli. Go Ooogle on Google, type in
Chinese Broccoli & do a search by Images, you'll see plenty. if i'm not
mistaken, it's part of the Brassica(sp?) family which includes cabages &
kale etc. hence the similarities & confusion because there's so many
varieties out there.
