True. Most rosaceae are already hardy but maybe hardier peaches or almonds could be worthwhile.

Very interesting. I wonder if this approach could be used with other tropical fruits. Though one would need to identify a graft-compatible species with notable frost hardiness.

I’m not sure on the graft compatibility but Diospyros and Persea both have temperate and tropical species and edible fruit. Ficus could be another although the most edible one is the hardiest in that genus.

Morus is another although there is minimal difference in fruit quality between species from what I’ve seen.

Sounds fun.

I haven’t experienced this either but I’m privileged and have only interacted with this community a little bit. So I was curious if anyone had had such experiences.

Is the mycology community bigoted? Lots of weirdos so I would have guessed they might be more tolerant but I guess it does skew kind of older.

But eating wild carrots is fun. I recommend eating wild carrot but not eating hemlock. That’s worked well for me so far.
