My take;the leaves are now 3ft across,I will try them when they first emerge in the spring when my info said they
can be used like spinach.
I sautéed an unopened flower head and it tasted too grassy for me.
The flower petals are supposed to be edible and I will try them but the flowers  don't last long when cut.
The roots haven't formed tubers on the periphery of the pond.
The seeds tasted decent when shelled and roasted
