Ha ha! Great original topic AND if there's ever a zombie apocalypse all the planty people will last a little longer thanks to you!!! Seriously though, I knew geranium has some crazy medicinal value but the rest were all shockers!
Haha good point, at least we'll have something to eat 🌱 It's surprising how many plants are edible or have medicinal properties but are predominantly or commonly used decoratively nowadays. Moreso for 'outdoor' plants. Interesting to research 🤓
Most flowers are edible, unless they're shaped like a bell, of course do research on what you have. Roses can be eaten raw, or used in teas, and their little fruits obviously are used in teas as well. Bromeliads are non-toxic and are technically edible. Also dont forget, the classic fern fiddleheads can be eaten at the right time.
It is surprising how many plants do have edible components that are now used more decoratively. I love rose in anything - well the flavour. I've not eaten a rose raw but have had it in tea blends and cakes. I didn't know Bromeliads and fern fiddleheads! Good to know 🤓
