Eruca vesicaria

803_9935 [Eruca vesicaria]

 
This annual or bi-annual plant is native to all Mediterranean countries, from Morocco and Portugal to Egypt and Turkey. In the field it looks to me more like a weed rather than a flower. Still, it is attractive and pleasant to look at. 
 
It is said to be edible but I have to confess that I have never tried it!
