Seeing this species first time. 
The species found in temperate Uttarakhand is edible. Is T.trilobatum edible?

This is a weed here, no one eats any part of this plant.

Thank you,

Rawat Sir,

Bimal Da informs that the leaves of this plant are eaten as vegetables (in North Bengal). And, there it is known as THARKUN in Bengali. But, here it is known as GHETKOL or GHETKEL. "Bengal Plants" informs two Bengali names - 1) GHET KACHU 2) GHEKOOL/GHEKUL.

Thank you,
Regards
surajit
