Beautiful! Are you planning to harvest any of the flowers to eat?

I honestly didn’t know that was a thing!! I only have one female flower developing right now, so I should harvest some of the blooms. Thank you!

No problem! They are hard to come by around me so I’ve only tried using them as a garnish so far; the flavor is subtle and the color is fun. That’ll be such a nice extra treat, enjoy!
