Hello, May 23, 2012
I tried them once many years ago and, perhaps by bad luck sampled a =
poor clone, but found them slimy, sour and disagreeable so never tried =
other patches.
This is not uncommon with 'edible' wild plants, e.g. marsh greens I =
tried once were awful. But some are consistent winners; e.g. Atriplex =
shoot ends as greens and Lathyrus japonicus young pods when half grown.=20
