Carefree native fruits are simply wonderful! Not only do they bear delicious, edible fruits, but the plants also fit beautifully into the home landscape. Pawpaws, for instance, bear tasty, banana-like fruit, and the trees are gorgeous when planted in full sun. Fig trees have a stately appearance and produce plump, luscious fruit that’s great for desserts. Currants, gooseberries and cranberries are ideal for smaller gardens. Some types, such as the mulberry, also provide valuable food for songbirds.
