Hawthorn Tree (Crataegus phaenopyrum--in pictures, and other species as well)

All parts of the tree are edible. It dilates blood vessels and contains antioxidants;
therefore, it is useful to: a) fight heart, respiratory, and digestive system problems;
b) control cholesterol levels; and c) reduce anxiety and lack of sleep. As with all small,
not overabundant, edible trees, do not consume the roots, bark, or cambium.
