O MG I luv nasturtiums: as a bug trap, for the colours of the flowers, as a ground cover and YES to eat. I love the large 3 inch leaves placed on a cheeseburger for a touch of heat and the flowers in a salad for colour and heat.. Not everyone likes the peppery taste but I do.

I also use in it place of caraway, which I believe is a punishment upon the earth 🤮



hola from Ecuador. parsley leaves snipped into a paper bag and placed in the refrigerator will dry and maintain beautiful colour and flavour. I do this for large leaf herbs like basil and sage. and no, cannot remove into jars unless your kitchen is very dry.  In my climate the humidity seeps in and ruins the leaves. Air drying is the only method that works against the humidity but is difficult for the herbs menbtioned. but my 'bags' of herbs and bread crumbs do not take up a lot of space in the tray below the freezer. Also, if your trays in the refrigerator are wire racks bunches of herbs can be clipped, hung and dry the same.  I prefer the paper bag method.  try it.
