I've never been fond of these but the ones in the pic were more intensely
orange than most I've seen so I thought that was slightly interesting.

I just learned the other day that they're edible. Hmmm. Wonder what they
taste like.

Ice cream?

I think they are good in salads and maybe I think they might taste
sort of radish like. Good with olive oil and balsamic vinigar.
They have been a favorite of mine to see growing.


The pickled seed pods are supposed to be like capers
