Are Spirea and hosta flowers edible?
Spirea and hosta flowers are just coming out in the garden now, are they ok for the torties to eat? (i know the hosta leaves are!!).

My tortoises dont touch spirea, apart from the occasionaly nibble the leaves, but they make great cover.
Hosta leaves most tortoises will eat, although one of my female iberas wont touch them<g>. So I would think the flowers would be ok to eat too. Darren might be of help here.
