  • ... that the roots of the bean flower alpine sweetvetch (pictured) are edible and taste like young carrots?

Length, newness OK, no policy violations. Nice PD picture, hook is interesting, review checks out. Main fact is cited.

I might be overly dense here, but I'm unsure about using the specific phrase "bean flower" to describe the plant, which isn't obviously supported by the article's contents nor Fabaceae. Would it be acceptable to change the wikilinking like this: "... roots of the bean flower "? --Pnm (talk) 15:16, 23 November 2011 (UTC)

Actually, you are partly correct...I was slightly overreaching! Fixed. Thx for reviewing; and do not doubt yourself! You are very capable and have good insight :) Rcej (Robert)talk 04:33, 24 November 2011 (UTC)
Alrighty! Looks good now. --Pnm (talk) 05:54, 24 November 2011 (UTC)
