Our entire backyard is edible landscaping. We have nine fruit trees,
black berries, blue berries, a herb garden, a large vegetable garden,
and long strip beds along the fence line that are generally put into a
mix of edible flowers, ornamental flowers, and vegetables.

If DW would allow it I would plant more fruit trees in the front yard
plus turn the flower beds into decorative vegetable gardens AND flower
beds. I guess I could always eat the roses like we do the pansies and
nasturtiums.
