What a fabulous hat! Very sturdy and ready to be worn. I'm not one with a green thumb or I would've kept this piece. I've only seen one other similar garden hat in the 8 years I've been collecting, and this one has superior graphics. This is a wide brim hat and costs more retailer to ship. Thanks for understanding.
