        Flowers, leaves, and roots are all edible. Seeds too, I think. But, as with so many plants, you have to be careful to check where they are growing to see if they are in a runoff area that could contain chemicals and pesticides, etc. Posted 6 years ago

The Jointed charlock

Raphanus raphanistrum is a flowering plant in the family Brassicaceae. It is sometimes claimed to be the ancestor of the edible radish, "Raphanus sativus". Native to Asia, it has been introduced into most parts of the world, and is regarded as a damagingly invasive species in many areas.
