trifecta Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 I asked my friend's Hungarian mother about alyssum, the old lady is always searching in neighbour's gardens and paddocks for plants to eat! The flowers apparently taste sweet, while the leaves are peppery and can be used in salads like rocket. It is the same family as mustard, high in Vitamin C and used in some European countries as a diuretic. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
