Foraging for food is very "Perma"! But alas, tasty meadow pepper-saxifrage is on the Red List, so KEEP YOUR HANDS OFF! So, sow it in your own garden instead. This perennial plant likes moist, nutrient-rich soil and grows to about 1 m tall. The leaves are cooked along as a flavouring, and the root is pleasantly spicy and can add its peppery flavour to cooked or stir-fried dishes.
