Aha! I remember that from last year. It's a pretty flower, seems a pity to eat it.

I have the red super king, the trinidad is what I am after. I don't have a rooted white COT, I am just sticking it in a pot now for you, so you could stick a red cutting in a pot for me. :) If the yellow one is solid yellow, I'll take that too, and I am bring you a yellow & pink one. I also went back to HD and picked up one of those crotons for you. :)

Costus Barbatus generally only blooms on second year growth so it has to be protected and make it through the winter before you'll see blooms. Every now and then, you might get one stalk to sport a bloom in late Sept. but that is rather rare. Steve

Do you just eat it whole or do you toss it through a salad?

You can eat the flower whole but they are great in a salad. The camera is 8 mp and 12 x optical zoom.
