I identified some black hawthorn in the summer but didn’t realize it’s value!

Is that a fish tank on your shirt? Also very helpful ID on the leaves.

Hmmm… I have the check my “Saskatoon” source as there were thorny bushes in the area which makes me think I actually made Hawthorn jam this summer. Lol

That or both were growing in the same area!

I often find them growing in the same areas, and I think they look pretty similar. Depending on the bushes, I think Saskatoon berries can also be similar to hawthorns in terms of taste with big seeds and not a lot of flavour. At least we know they're both edible! Thank you!
