EAT IT BTW, have you come across Tropeolum tuberosum? Grows madly – mine is now up to 6ft off the ground & still going strong. I’ll fins out this winter if the tubers really are dible, or not!

@LR, Looks nice and somewhere good to relax. As said, they are food – leaves & flowers. Cabbage family – ours usually feed Cabbage White caterpillars too.
Very tasty either alone or in a salad.
