Loving these beautiful wych elm seed pods… especially with the pink spot on them! The buds and emerging leaves are mucilaginous in texture (like baby linden leaves) and can be used in wild salads, and the immature seed pods are edible and pleasant to eat raw, but I’m going to pickle some with garlic, lemon & wild spices 🙂
