Turkish Rocket (Bunias orientalis)
A very hardy perennial in the brassica family. The edible leaves provide some of the first and last greens of the season and can be used raw like rocket when young and cooked as they get older. The young florets can be harvested and cooked like broccoli and if left to mature, the bright yellow flowers are very pretty and have a wonderful perfume. They attract all sorts of beneficial insects.
