Where can I buy edible flowers?

Could anyone tell me where can I buy edible flowers (untreated flowers) in South London area?
I just saw Sophie Griegson made salad with Rose petals which looked gorgeous....

Wink Grow pansies, violas, nasturtiums, you can use the flower, leaf (a bit peppery) and seeds (pickle them like capers), and borage also chive flowers. You don't need a garden - pots or a windowbox will do.

Seasonal edible flowers are available to buy online from Maddocks Farm Organics. See their website at www.maddocksfarmorganics.co.uk.

Garden rose petals can be used, but take care over pesticides and herbicides which can prove lethal. Sorry I don't know of anywhere in the London area to buy from, but there are places online for edible flowers, may not be worth the expense for rose petals though.

In your garden??! Or is there a particular species of rose you can eat or can you eat any?
