Cucumber blossoms look quite pretty on top of a bowl of egg salad and taste good, too. I harvested some of the oregano that basks in the light from the Aerogarden mini which is currently home to Amaranth.
How could I not eat this?
Also enjoying the lumination from the grow lamp are various cuttings, including Creeping Charlie from a neighbor's shaded porch. It is actually Swedish Begonia, I think, meaning the edible houseplant with the Latin name Plectranthus verticillatus. It is also called Swedish Ivy, not to be confused with Ground Ivy aka Creeping Jenny. I was searching for information online to collaberate my experience that Plectranthus verticullatus (a coleus) flourishes in sun or shade. Naturally all the hits that came up spoke instead of ways to get rid of a noxious weed that takes over any part of your lawn if you have one and let it. But that would be the aforementioned ground ivy which is Glechoma hederacea.
Swedish Begonia is edible, I believe--at least I eat it, but the medicinal herb that was much aclaimed by ancient scientists would be the ground ivy.
They are both in the Lamiaceae (Mint) family.
