Purple carrots?edible flowers?
Purple carrots contain anthocyanins, pigments that act as powerful antioxidants, grabbing and holding on to harmful free radicals in the body. Anthocyanins also help prevent heart disease by slowing blood clotting.





Surprisingly, purple and yellow carrots were grown and eaten as long ago as 900 AD in Afghanistan. People began cultivating orange carrots only about 400 years ago, and most of the world eats them today.





Edible flowers contain vitamin C as well as vitamin A


and many of the pigmentation substances such as beta carotene. Here is a great site that lists the nutritional values for various edible flowers:
