Nasturtiums, squash blossoms, kale, artichokes. Peas are not the blossom, but the seeds.

Nasturtium.The leaves can also be added into salads along with the flowers.
Reply:You can eat the blooms from a Zucchini plant. Dip in egg wash. roll in flower and fry in hot oil until golden brown. Very Tasty!
Reply:I work with Alzheimer residents and as a result we are only allowed to have edible flowers (just in case...) Here is a list of what we are allowed in our unit and what they taste like:


Anise hyssop - sweet, like licorice


Apple Blossom - delicate floral


Arugula - nutty, spicy


Basil - varies by breed


Bee balm - lemony, minty


Begonia - crisp, sour, lemony


Calendula - spicy, tangy, peppery


Carnation - spicy, peppery


Chrysanthemum - bitter


Daisy - tangy, leafy


Dianthus (pinks) - clove-like


Fuchsia - acidic


Geranium - varies by breed


Hollyhock - bland


Impatiens - bland


Lavender - floral


Marigold - peppery


Orchid - crisp, soft


Pansy - sweet to tart


Petunia - leafy


Primrose - sweet to bland


Rose - sweet, aromatic


Snapdragon - bland to bitter


Sunflower - leafy


Tulip - crisp, cucumber-like


Violet - sweet, nectar-like





These are all regular flowers that are edible, not flowers that come from fruit or vegitable but maybe the list will help.

Reply:Day lily flower buds can be cooked (steamed) like green beans or pea pods. We have tons of wild common orange liles and I occasionally serve them up with dinner. They steam quite quickly.
Reply:Letuce, Cabbage, Brusselsprouts
Reply:zucchini (courgette) flowers.
Reply:peas?
Reply:as others have suggested all types of squash blossoms may be eaten. i think asparagus is actually a stalk, not a flower. dandelions flowers make a good wine and are great on salads, if picked in the spring.rose hips (the bottom part of a rose flower) are a great source of vitamin C, although they might be considered a seed pod.

Reply:This is not a fruit or veggie flower but the Dandalions are edible. Fix them like you would wild mushrooms. Soak in salt water overnight then rinse well.... Then flour and fry them. Yummy... Salt them to taste...One great thing about them is they are a whole lot easier to find then wild mushrooms and they kinda have the same flavor
Reply:Fried pumpkin flowers.
