I have been watering my plants every day and I still don´t know if those seedlings I have if a small container are marigolds or weeds. I do have 4 marigold plants that have grown a lot. And I have even discovered that they are edible flowers. Have you ever eaten marigolds? Have you eaten other flowers?

I've eaten nasturtiums but that's it. Marigolds are very bright flowers. They always life my spirits.

I have always wondered if you can eat the flower when it has opened

@marguicha Yes, the flowers are edible. Some people make fritters out of them and other concoctions.

I've added marigold petals to salads before, as well as violets and cornflower petals.

A couple of petals will make your green salad beautiful and you can also eat them
