The mexican apple plant is one of the few multi season wild edibles that gives us texans something to nibble nearly every month of the year.
Turk s cap flower edible. Well actually turk s cap mallow is the common name used for two different hibiscus relatives. The mexican apple is more commonly known as turk s cap but that name while appropriately describing the shape of the flower does little justice to its edible qualities. The leaves of turk s cap are also edible as are the small berries they produce. It seems the bulb from which the turk s cap flowers grow is a tasty addition to stews and meat dishes.
Turk s caps are native to the gulf coast region of the southeastern us zone 9 so be on the lookout for these distinctive flowers if you live in that area. Turk s cap lily information tells us that these flowers nearly became extinct a few decades ago because of their popularity as an edible. Turk s cap mallow is a florida friendly shrub related to hibiscus. Both malvaviscus penduliflorus and malvaviscus arboreus sport lovely flowers usually red that perpetually appear as if they re just about open fully but never do.
How to make sparkling flower cordials. Steaming sautéing boiling or stir frying are all good ways to cook these leaves. The young tender leaves can be used like spinach but cook them to soften their texture. The flowers provide nectar to eager ruby throated hummingbirds and several species of butterflies.
We liked these edible flowers so much that we grow ours in a pot.
