| Summary: | 64 varieties of nontraditional edible leaves, flowers and stems were studied in 14 communities of the central valley, coastlines and borders of Costa Rica. These products appear parallel to isogonic lines that follow the mountain system range of the country. There is a greater variety of leaves during the rainy season and of flowers, during the dry season. The stems are perennial all the year. Cultural reasons, urbanism and agricultural practices restrain their present consumption, although the population recognizes their great benefit to health. |
