What would you recommend to grow in front yard, so it is edible and
looks good enough not to **** homeowner asscociation?


Kohl Rabi are a novelty. Beetroot. Silver beet or coloured chard.
The gold nugget pumpkins grow on a clumping bush not a trailing vine,
and it's large leaves with golden fruit is attractive. Pole beans,
especially coloured ones. Strawberries would look okay in a sunny spot.
Rhubarb, too. Passionfruit. Not all these are vegetables, but they are
edible.
