    This super fast and easy to grow edible is a deliciously pungent addition to any mixed veggies dish. This plant is, however, definitely one to enjoy before it flowers; after bud-set the plant exudes a musty scent and has an unappealing flavor.

    Garden Cress might be a good choice for sprouting on a well-lit windowsill during a long, cold winter.
