No, but they are edible, as are many other flowers.
Just a couple of weeks ago, i presented a lesson on edible flowers to my study group, although amid snickers and jokes........but as we got into the lesson, several were amazed by how many of their flower-bed flowers were edible.....i didn't admit that i was just as amazed while researching information for that lesson
From what i've learned, about edible flowers, I've made a new rule for this year: if we can't eat it, we don't plant it :-0)
Here are a few representative links, if you're interested in knowing what other flowers are edible and which ones are not
