They may be OK but I have just had a look on google &#38; several say they are poisonous - but they may be wrong.....better to be safe than sorry. However, Nasturtium are listed as edible flowers - the buds are pickled like capers!</p> <p>Regards TopVeg </p> http://farmingfriends.com/forums/topic.php?id=1442#post-11538 Sat, 12 Feb 2011 18:06:53 +0000 Mama 11538@http://farmingfriends.com/forums/ <p>Thanks Topveg.
