I gotta give it to mulberries, don’t get enough attention!

The buds of the flower Bauhinia variegata are both cooked amd used for pickles, spectacular stuff.

    Planted three paw paw saplings this spring and it looks like they’re going to make it. If all goes well, I’ll have fruit to share in ten years or so!

      Apparently they will only fruit if they are pollinated by a different genetic lineage of tree, so you may need to find a different seed/sapling source if those three came from the same place.

        Interesting, I hadn’t heard that. They all came from the county extension office but I have no idea if that means they came from the seeds of one plant. It might just be worth getting another one just in case.
