A weed, but also tasty.

How do you serve it?

arturus December 21 2006, 04:34:02 UTC

I don't, I just eat the flowers. Or rather, I pick the purple parts off and eat them. It's in no way a premeditated or organized thing.

Besides hyacynth and crocuses, I think clovers are my favorite flowers. Might be because I'm a major fan of clover-honey...

Weeds are some of my favorite species, actually.

When I lived in Arkansas, red clover was used in highway medians and on the sides to keep down other weeds. Beautiful, but not pleasant for me if the car windows were down as I am extremely alergic to white and red clover. Can't even eat clover honey, or bee pollen, unless it is wildflower, preferably mountain wildflower.
