Rowan

Common Names: Rowan, American Mountain Ash (for americana), European Mountain Ash (for acuparia)
Latin Names: Sorbus americana or Sorbus aucuparia or some other variety
Type: Tree
Origin: Native?

Edible: Fruit is not good raw but good cooked such as in jam, jelly, and syrup.

Other uses: Medicinal uses. Wood can be used for wood carving. Bark can make a red brown dye.

Note: Unsure of species on this one. Too far south for americana and aucuparia  but haven't found a species in Florida. Haven't seen the fruit yet. These trees are still small and along our tree line.
