Used to eat them as children, spit the pip out. We called them bread and cheese. 😊

Like little itty bitty apples these are. They make an excellent apple jelly. 😊
Eat the leaves? Who would have thunk it? I think I'll try that next spring.
Amygdalin, also called Laetrile, cyanic acid, hydrogen cyanide. A small amount is a potent cancer fighter.
Excellent video Karen!

I live in Central Texas, and there is a park i go to that has these trees. Haha, amazing! The leaves look different on the ones I saw, though.

Can you freeze haws or rose hips if you don't have time to process them right away?

Kind of like yew berries in a way ay ?
You dont eat the seeds so it takes alot of them for juice etc ay ?

I live in Northern Nevada and have 3 Hawthorne trees. I'm going to harvest berries after the first frost and try to make something out of them. I will for sure try drying the berries to use for tea. Any suggestions on the best/ easiest way to remove the seeds?

There’s a really nice one in the middle of the Young Men’s Hebrew Association cemetery on Roselawn Street

I'm not sure if I ever saw one of those trees.
