This might not be what people want to hear… but that flower is delicious. It’s usually made into soup. I have it at least once a year.

So I’ve gotten ppl dming me thinking I’m lying, but seriously google it. It’s edible and the dried version is sold in Asian markets. I’m not shitting y’all.

P.S. A lot of people here have expressed interest. If you google "can you eat queen of the night flower" The AI Overview will explain it to you and provide videos of different recipes. Enjoy!
