Pansies, and they’re a very common edible flower! Often used to decorate desserts. I’ve picked them for an edible flower farm in the millions. They taste…like lettuce that’s been sprayed directly with perfume…so, not great…

Thanks! I'm glad I kept it.

Glad to hear! It’s a fun party trick to pick them and eat them around people who don’t really have a grasp of edible flowers, and they think you’re nuts.
