The Edible Flower Garden (Edible Garden Series)

I never thought I would crave flowers, but this book has made me turn a new leaf! Another great inspiration from the Edible Garden Series. This is a valuable reference book as it provides the essentials to a successful garden in a format that is consistent and easy to read. It includes a complete encyclopedia of edible flowers with beautifully detailed photos that are good enough to eat! The photos make it easy for the beginner to learn the names of edible flowers and to easily identify all varieties. The author takes great care in listing any poisonious varieties that might be mistaken as edible. This book also contains sections on Planting and Maintenance, and Pest and Disease Control. It's an all-in-one tool. I plan to order the entire Edible Garden series. As soon as I finish one book, I'm hungry for the next!

This is a gift for a young boy interested in this

We have been eating tasty nasturtium leaves and flowers in our salads for a few years now, my hubby has long enjoyed his fresh day lily buds, and I have enjoyed making festive ice cubes with embedded viola flowers. Then I found this wonderful book. It has definitely expanded our knowledge and enlivened our table. It has lovely 4-color plant photos, growing advice, plus yummy flower recipes. We had no idea that so many flowers were not only quite lovely, but also delightfully edible. I thought the book was so terrific, I got 2 more copies as gifts!

This is a beautiful book to look at. And for a beginner it has some very useful information. But for me I was looking for a a more complete source of information. Will probably pass it on as a present to someone just getting started in using flowers in cooking.

We love this book because it has such great ideas for using edible flowers on cakes. We own a Pressed flower company and we sell edible flowers for people to use in baking. What a great find! So many great pictures and ideas!

Was in good shape.

I have had a lot of fun with this book, both in the garden and re-assuring guests. I like to make some people nervous about digging in to a gorgeous platter of food with a few things they don't know if they are supposed to eat. Nice photographs and helpful commentary. When planning the garden for each season, this is the book I turn to for ideas about the finishing touches.

My book arrived today. It was even better than I'd hoped for. The book is well thought out and organized to be quite useful. The photos are gorgeous, too! The book not only includes info about what flowers are edible, but also tips for how to grow them, ways to use them and several of the author's favorite recipes. I'm looking forward to trying many of these.

Excellent, informative book for edible flower references. A must book for those looking for a collection to grow and harvest for food presentation and serving. I would "miss" this book if it was misplaced. It is placed with my "most frequently" used cookbooks.

Lovely book, really enjoying it.

Thank you!
