Nasturtium
A beautifull trailing/climbing annual that will flower all summer long. Usually bought by many as an ornamental plant for borders or baskets, it is actually a delicious edible plant. Leaves have a peppery flavour and so are great used in mixed salads along with the flowers. Seed pods that produce can be pickled and used like capers.
