Cautions:
Avoid using non-edible flowers as a garnish. They may be mistaken as edible.

Do not use pesticides on flowers in your garden that you wish to eat unless they are organic pesticides labeled for use with edible crops.

Wait the recommended time before harvesting if you have used organic pesticides.

Don't eat flowers purchased from florists or commercial garden centers or picked from roadsides, as they probably have been contaminated by pesticides or pollutants.

Introduce edible flowers into your diet gradually. Flowers may cause digestive problems if eaten in large quantities, so use them sparingly.

People who suffer from allergies and asthma may have allergic reactions to edible flowers and should use them only as a garnish.
