If you enjoy flowers - for eating - you could try some nasturtiums or borage. Nasturtiums have a radish - peppery taste, borage has a watermelon - cucumber taste. Flowers from both plants are good eaten as snacks off the plant or in salads and sandwiches and some desserts.
Reply:Since it is July and there are still 3 month of growing season left,


I would suggest you go ahead with some winter lettuce of different types. Ask your local nursery and gardening center.
