I've had trouble finding info on others too, so I was just wondering if there is something I was missing.
Specifically, at the moment, I'm looking for information on the dwarf paw-paw, (Asimina pygmaea). Everything I can find points to all Asimina species having edible fruits. It's a native plant and it is speculated that the Native Americans propagated the plant to places as far as Texas and Kansas and all along coast. I like the way it looks and want to try to incorporate some into the landscaping if it's edible.
It's not in my weeds book and there are cultivated varieties, I just can't seem to find anything specific on this species.
Thanks in advance
