Salad Burnet (Sanguisorba minoris)
An attractive perennial plant grown for its edible, cucumber-like flavored leaves and flowers. Salad burnet can spread by rhizomes and it will self-seed. The fern-like leaves and well contained growth habit makes it suitable for planting in both containers and beds.
Use salad burnet whenever you want to add a cool, cucumber flavor in salads and sandwiches. Add to cold drinks, like lemonade and wine spritzers. Use salad burnet to flavor dips and bottles of vinegar.
Hardiness: Zones 4-8
Sun: Full sun or part shade
Size: 12-18 in. high x 12-24 in. wide
