Hi

do they actually have trees on Orkney?
If they do then they might just grow here! Rowan trees are lovely ,
are the berry's ok as I have a 2 year old! Not sure about that!

I have a Rowan tree in my garden and when I bought it I asked the same
question of the nursery as I also have a young family. They said the
berries didn't taste very nice and might give the kids a sore tummy but
thats it. Our Rowan is thriving here in Windy Ayrshire.

Rowan berries are edible. You can make jam from them if you get them before
the birds do :0)
