Could I get some suggestions for edible flowers? Especially varieties of Marigolds.

Thanks ya'll!

You might want to check the What's Cooking America link that I posted in this thread:

https://www.helpfulgardener.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=24708

It lists many edible flowers. I have not eaten marigolds, but I have read that they are all edible. However, not all of them necessarily taste good. :)

Sorry folks for asking the same question in 2 places, I'm new and was unsure where to put my question. :)

Ashamed,

Don't be ashamed... I was just giving info. You didn't know.


This post:

https://www.helpfulgardener.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=66667&highlight=edible+flowers#66667

is a list I did awhile back of edible flowers.

I would add marigolds, squash blossoms, and borage flowers.
