Edible flowers? Nasturtiums or something a bit different?

Definately nasturtiums as they will draw the bees in from miles around and will also draw the cabage whites away from, your cabages  :lol:
You caould also plant sweet peas too as they will clinb all over the top and the nasturtiums will grow around the bottom  ;)

yes i love nastusium leaves in salads and with egg sarnies. Just discovered a semi-trailing, yellow striped marrow with a red nastursium could look good.
