Love the photos, info and all the comments. First time I went to Greece I went 'horta' collecting w. the aunts in Andros. When they checked my full bag later, I had one little stem that was good- they had a good laugh. Just found this site. Love the photos, info and all the comments.

I'm totally in awe of anybody with the stamina to pick bags to give away. Wow! Yes, these are the same all over the west coast, and elsewhere, I'm sure. That’s great, Daphni!

I'm glad I found some directions to cook them and confirmation and recommendation to concentrate on the flower buds. I was thinking I should only boil the leaves. It looks like the same thing he found in the western part of San Diego. It's amazing all those tiny spikes cook nicely. The water is boiling right now...
