Heather plants, particularly the flowers of the common heather (Calluna vulgaris), are technically edible and can be used to make infusions or brewed as herbal teas. However, they are not widely consumed as food, and their leaves can be tough and bitter. Additionally, some species of heather may contain compounds that could be harmful in large quantities, so caution is advised. It's best to consult reliable sources or experts before consuming any wild plants.
Heather is generally not considered edible and can be toxic if consumed in large quantities. While some parts of the plant, like its flowers, have been used in traditional herbal remedies or for flavoring, it's best to avoid eating heather unless you are certain of its safety and preparation methods. Always consult a knowledgeable source before consuming any unfamiliar plants.

Indigo, specifically indigo dye derived from the plant Indigofera, is not considered edible. While the plant itself has been used in traditional medicine and some cultures, the dye can be toxic if ingested in large quantities. It's important to differentiate between the indigo dye and any edible plants that may have similar names or uses. Always consult reliable sources before consuming any unfamiliar plants or substances.
