EDIBLE FLOWERS
(To safely use flowers and herbs-- look up both Latin and Common names. Be sure the Latin names you want to use are edible & are not on a  list of poisonous plants. Remove reproductive flower parts & pollen, stems, & damaged flower parts before using.  Check for insects.
Use organic edible flowers--and not flowers from a regular florist.) 
Be aware of your own sensitivities, allergies, and health conditions
