     @evan and both came from a plant swap with neighbors in town many years ago. I’ll dig some this week to swap over the weekend.

     @IcooIey fair enough! I've read about them but never eaten them. I guess the ripe fruit are not poisonous. I've read a couple of accounts that they used to be a summer fruit beloved by children. Anyway, glad you're staying safe!

     @evan to be honest I’ve never looked closely to see. Most of the plant is toxic and fruit only edible when fully ripe so I’ve never tried it. I leave it for the wildlife.
