We all tried a little of it and had the same opinion.<BR/><BR/>I've had orange blossom flavored custard, though, and it's wonderful. And nasturtiums are one of the cheapest, prettiest things I know: you can put the flowers AND leaves in salads and sandwiches, and they even taste great.<BR/><BR/>My mother was a chrysanthemum person.
