I love salads and get a kick out of decorating them with edible flowers. Now that spring is here, I look forward to foraging for flowers. These edible flowers are great for cake-top decorating too.
These are the ones I have tried and will plant a few to harvest throughout the growing season:
|
Peony petals |
|
Yucca filamentosa "Adam's Needle" |
|
Petals of flowers only on Yucca |
|
Rocket Arugula |
- Viola (not pansies, but the perennial, self seeding Viola)
- Nasturtium
- Hosta Flowers (without stamen and anthers)
- Rocket Arugula (Eruca sativa)
- Lavender
- Basil flowers
- Mint flowers
- Pinks - Dianthus
|
Chives |
- Chive and Onion flowers
- Squash and Zuchinni (Corchets)
- Sugar Snap Sweet Pea
- Yucca filamentosa (petals only)
- Borage
- Peony petals
