RE: Candyfloss Begonias in Improvised Milk Container Plant Pots: A Little Gardening Project with a Crispy Twist

Good job, I didn't know that begonias can be eaten haha I learned something new reading your post.

You did a good job transplanting them 😊

Thank you, yes they are edible except for the tubers of tuberous begonia but consumed in moderation. They contain oxalic acid, just like the one you find in taro, spinach, quinoa, and many other types of vegetables/fruits; not suitable for people with arthritis or kidney issues, especially if they are eaten raw and much oxalic can cause kidney stones. 😊
