I saw pictures of the seeds and they are so strange I had to grow some myself! I had to order the seeds off eBay from some far off country, I forget which one. They are annuals, but reseed themselves. I never tried eating the leaves, which can be used to make a pesto sort of condiment. The flowers are about like parsley, which it's related to (carrot family).
I am surprised. I was sure I was looking at sets of dentist's models for teeth, but no, these are the flowers of a plant. Who would have guessed? An odd plant used in salads and for making pesto. Thank you for furthering our education.

DeleteBeautiful photograph of a very strange plant
ReplyDeleteThey kind of look like those chattering teeth. In B&W at least.
