What would be some Flowers (including Edible Flowers) I could plant from seed for the Fall and Winter.

I'm in Zone #8/14

I have some Nasturtiums growing from seed (still very small). I've seen Nasturtiums growing around our area, but they don't survive the Winter cold here.

You can eat squash blossoms too. They are really prised in Asian culture. Candied rose petals and violets.

I also eat my broccoli when it has flowered

I just ate some Southern Curled Flowers, Red Giant Mustard Flowers and Radish Flowers today! I also have some Chinese Cabbage Flowers. I need to plant about 10 or 20 times more of those plants so I have enough Flowers to eat with a salad, spaghetti, goulash, noodles, soup ....

There's also fall blooming mums! The petals would look great in a salad!

I am intrigued in your interest in eating flowers. Is there something you are not telling us? LOL! I like eating flowers of my common veggies but have not looked at it in depth. If you have info, please share

Squash flowers are tasty!
Then there's borage, and daylilies!
