Golly! Will no ornamental plant be safe from the hunger of the adventurous?!? Next week I expect to see you munching on some pyracantha... uh oh, shouldn't have said that! :D

In all fairness, I do hope someone somewhere undertakes the task of making more tasty edible decorative cultivars. Another idea would be to have more naturally edible species more readily accepted as decorative - that would require way less selection work and more demonstration gardens :) Get to redoing that front yard of yours!

I'm glad you liked it! Is there a specific species of Cotoneaster you're going to try? Please be careful and only try a little bit, either way.

There is one on a local walk, I will take a photo and try to identify. And eat only a little, got it!
