Stock, Sakura No Uta

Midseason flowering type. The name translates to “cherry blossom song” or “song of the cherry blossom,” and indeed these soft pink petals have the look of a cherry blossom, with perhaps an even better fragrance! This Japanese variety reaches about 35-40 inches tall with a robust and floriferous single stalk. The edible blooms are scented like sweet clove! We love to add the fresh petals to salads, or use them to impart a beautiful color to baked goods and rice! This is our favorite edible flower!
