I visited the web page of The Food Network to look up some 
recipes for my mother. Found this in the Q&A section. I left 
their speling misteaks alone.........

Q: Can we get a list of the edible flowers Chef Razz used 
   on Chef du Jour?
A  Yes you can, here's the list:
Peach blossoms, apple blossoms, artichoke blossoms, bachelor buttons,
basil (cinnamon, lemon, anise, sweet, mommouth, picolo, Greek),
begonias, bee balm, calendulas, cilantro, chrysantheums, dandlions,
day lillies, dainthus, elderberries, garlic chives, garlic (society),
geraniums "scented" variety, holyhocks, hyssop anise, jasmine,
lavender (lady, blue, purple), marigolds, mint, mustard, nasturiums,
nodding wild onion, pansies, parsley, purple sage, rose schrub, 
radishes, sage, salvia (Victoria blue), snapdragon, squash blossoms,
summer savory, stocks, winter savory, yucca, zinnias, zucchini blossoms.
I dunno if ALL parts of these plants are edible, but it's a place
to start.
