Found a new one! While searching for evergreens for my Asian/Cloud Forest back garden, I stumbled across an edible nut tree! Japanese Nutmeg Yew (Torreya Nucifera) is a medium large coniferous tree, usually growing to about 40ft tall. It fills a unique niche in the edible landscape as a decent sized tree that thrives in shade. The fruit ripens in fall and contains an edible nut, tasty enough to be eaten whole in quantity, or pressed for oil.
