INSTRUCTIONS
Not all flowers are edible. Some delicious looking plants are poisonous,
and eating them could lead to serious illness or death. For instance, there
are 60 commercial varieties of pansies, and only three that are
specifically for eating. Choose flowers only from edible plants or those
listed in a reliable source. Flowers also should be eaten only in the
amounts specified in recipes.
Persons who are prone to allergies can have an allergic reaction to
flowers, as to any food. Proceed with caution when trying unfamiliar
flowers. If you have any doubt about the identity of a flower, do not eat
it. Your best bet is to use flowers commercially grown especially for
eating. Linda Beaulieu.
