      • The pea family (Fabaceae) do have members like Wysteria whose flowers are edible but leaves and stems are toxic. There are 700 genera and 20,000 species in the pea family. They are angiosperms and I should have known that for sure. Anyway, cheers!

  1. Oh, I missed one! That darn pea family. Troublesome creatures they are with edible flowers and toxic stems and leaves. I should have thought more carefully about this. Oh well.
