The following are some common flowers that are edible. If you ever find yourself locked in the botanical garden after hours, you might make a salad of these:

Carnations - Petals are sweet.

Crysanthemums - Petals are tangy and slightly bitter. Leaves are allegedly edible as well.

Clover - Tastes like licorice.

Dandelions - Petals taste like honey when picked young.

Roses - All roses are edible. The darker flowers have the most pronounced flavor.
