There is an old adage which tells you to walk to the sweetcorn plot, then RUN to the cooking pot!
My favourite planting is edible flowers to put into salads. Plants we all know like nasturtium and dandelion (the leaves are better blanched), but also try mallow, marigolds and pansies, not forgetting violets and lavender. My salads are so colourful, tasty too
