Flowers for food: Sunflower buds taste similar to artichokes but taste bittersweet after the flower opens.
Violets in French history:When Napoleon died he was wearing a locket around his neck which contained violets which had been growing at Josephine's grave site. Orchids are popular: The orchid is the most popular houseplant probably because it is more easily available than in the past and it is very easy to care for.
