Hibiscus. Don't know about eating just the flower but Mexicans make a agua de jamaica or just jamaica with it

What goes good with floral flavors? Looking for something nice to make my gf, she loves rosewater

I used to make an awesome rice pudding with rose water, coconut milk, bay leaf and saffron. Sprinkle some chopped pistachios on there and you're a winner

Pickle magnolia petals, eat nasturtiums, feijoa flowers are great too

Japs eat sakura.

Well, glorious nippon food has been folded more than a 1000 times, that's why it's vastly superior

Almond, vanilla and pistachio go well.

There's also bean flowers but they taste kind of like beans. There's also squash flowers and herb flowers that take on their herb flavor (like rosemary or basil).

Pretty well all herb blossoms are edible and tasty. Basil, mint, thyme, sage, chives etc etc
Bachelor button/cornflower- kind of a clove like flavor
Daylilies. Kind of taste like melon but not sweet.
Nasturtium. Spicy, peppery flavor. Also the seed pods are edible and tasty.
Borage. Flavor is honey like.
Some veg flowers, like squash/peas/bean flowers
Many fruit flowers (orange blossom, cherry/plum blossom etc)
Pansies/johnny-jump-ups
Some types of marigolds

borage

>doesn't mention the most famous floral flavor
Saffron, and the cheaper safflower.
But really, any edible flower can work and have a unique taste. Consider her favorite herbs, fennel pollen is all the rage for bullshit fancy stuff.
Borage tastes like cucumbers.

Here's a big book of edible flowers I found recently.

They even eat fried maple leaves, although it's more a festival thing.

I made a drink with that once. I made a jamaica tea and then added honey and rum. I called it The Mexican Pirate.
