Asimina triloba are river trees that grow in largely in clonal stands in the wild. Growers have released cultivars selected for flavor, larger fruit, and smaller seeds. These are propagated by grafting scion wood to seed-grown root stock.

Seems silly not to share a sample of the harvested corn. It's an heirloom cultivar named Hickory Cain.

Thanks! I see little brown mushrooms with moss pretty often. First time seeing these together, though. Your question sent me down a fun rabbit hole re:moss-fungi ecology research!

Another joy I get from this tree is that it surprised us. Planted 8 years ago while building the house, starting new job, & raising a new born & toddler. So, we had completely forgotten what it was until it made tasty fruit last year!
