Edible?
 

I found these things growing in my garden. Are they edible?

Of course, you can eat anything in your garden. Why, I ate a pair of doves that landed on my lawn yesterday.

Also, while we're on the topic of lawns, anyone who waters their lawn is a douchebag.

They're stinging nettles & I wouldn't try eating them raw if I were you! If you want to eat them gather some with thick gloves & try this or a similar nettle soup recipe

Bon appetit!
