      Lots of plants are hella toxic, unless process right or only certain PARTS of the plant are edible. Good example of this is Elderberry; most of the plant contains cyanide, and other toxins, so consuming the berries raw are very much NOT recommended. After boiling and processing them though, they're perfectly safe.
      And he seems the kind of person to do his research. I'm more concerned about random netizens who think EVERY plant is edible and dont do their research.

    I have been growing trees for bonsai for a couple decades. I have those that are hardy(zone 6) and then I have my tropicals and subtropicals. Nearly all of my tropicals and subtropicals are trees I have started from seeds of fruit I get from the supermarket. I still continue to grow trees from seed because you get the opportunity to bend and shape the trees before they lignify. My latest exploits involves pomegranates. Although you need to use the seeds before they dry. And Limes are by far my favorite citrus trees. They are far more vigorous and tolerant of lower lights than the others. I've also got guava, allspice, pomelo, Lemons, kumquat, Bay Laurel (Bay leaves), arrabica coffee, Rose Mary, Avacado that's probably it for the edibles.
    I just thought I would share some ideas for your edible trees.

    I am curious what part of the country you live in. I live in Minnesota and a lot of species of plants will not survive the cold winters here. I have been trying to grow berries beside the street for all the people that walk by but I have yet to yield any berries. Plus several have died. I did not bring them in or even do anything to them to prepare for winter this year because in previous years a lot of our plants have returned by just leaving them alone. Also what species of tree would you recommend I plant here in this climate?
