If you want to add a beautiful touch to a salad or dinner plate, add a flower! Many flowers are edible.
Herb flowers are edible-like basil, thyme, oregano, calendula/pot marigold, sage, lavender, nasturtium, chamomile, borage, bee balm and rosemary.
Vegetable flowers are edible-like broccoli, cabbage, kale, bean, pea, onion, chives, garlic, zucchini, chicory.
Some plants we consider weeds are edible-like dandelions flowers and greens and clover flowers.
Then there are the ornamentals that are edible like daylilies, orchids, violets, chrysanthemums, honeysuckle, lilac, roses, dianthus, passion flower, daisies, scented geraniums, snapdragons, tulips and sunflowers.
