Common Hackberry


The Common Hackberry, often mistaken for the American Elm tree, produces edible hackberries, which are enjoyed by birds and other wildlife and can be made into jellies and preserves or eaten raw by humans. The tree stands at 40-100 feet when it has reached maturity. The tree’s leaves are asymmetrical, rough, and a dull green color.
