Mentioned in the 'growing unusual veg' thread.

Has anybody grown them? Are they worth a try?

They grow on the rocks at the side of the road on Zakynthos, so wonder how you could replicate those conditions here

Chiltern seeds seem to think it would be possible in a heated greenhouse

Not much chance in this country I fear.

I have made lots of capers from nasturtium seeds ! The original are from a thorny bush in the med but nasturtiums do exactly the same thing and no one can tell the difference. just pick the seed pods when they are still green.
