Notes on and photos of edible plants

NB: If it looks like carrots or parsley and you are not completely sure then leave it as it might be hemlock "they also cause troubles to botanists"

If it looks like garlic or chives smell it to see - it's edible

European wild ginger (Asarum europaeum)

Tastes like sandalwood if you eat the root

Carnations (like this one) are all edible and this is a wild relative

Calamintha adriana - a type of mint, it has mild psychoactive in strong quantities

Mountain Savory

This fern's root is sweet and bitter at once but without sugar

Salvia (relative of sage) flowers are light yellow

Wild carrot

Hairy stem (smooth stem is poisonous)

Leaves just beneath that point downwards

Black flower in the centre of white confluorescence

Good King Henry

Looks like spinach grows in high places and is delicious!

Ground Ivy (Glechoma hederacea, Slovenian Brsljanasta grenjkuljica)

St Johns wort Oil infused is good for dry joints (rubbed) and sunburn, but to drink the tea makes you more susceptible to the sun's rays (may be part of antidepressant action helping you get more vitamin D?)
