Strawberry
Spinach (Leafy Goosefoot) Chenopodium foliosum
- Annual; This
pretty
annual plant is edible as well as attractive.
The branches are
covered
with densely placed pink flowers that mature into small red
berries in
the summer, making quite a show. The plant is very adaptable and
does well in even heavy soils. The leaves can be eaten like
spinach,
the seed is dried and ground into a powder that is used to
flavor
cereal
and bread (make certain to soak the seed to remove any of the
berry
before
using - these contain saponins which can be dangerous in
large
quantities).
Full sun or partial shade; height: 15in.
