Who has tasted these? I love their cinnamon-applesauce-apricot like flesh

I'm intrigued.

Useful website said go for the "Dutch" variety.

Going to check with my local nursery.

Also this...

Stern's Medlar (Mespilus canescens) native to the US, but...

"The known range of Mespilus canescens is within the 22-acre Konecny Grove Natural Area."

...and nowhere else! Wow!!

Cool. It is possible to narrow it down. Too many refs, so I'm including the whole query...

#Mespilus germanica, #medlar awaiting bletting https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bletting
Once they have bletted (have blet?) the inside is mushy like apple sauce, and you can squeeze it out and eat it out of hand or use it for various kinds of preserve.

I picked up some medlar at the Bellingham Farmers Market, but they need to go through the bletting process (aka, go rotten) for a few weeks before the fruit's interior is ready to eat and/or use in jams or fruit butter.

Medlar, aka "open-arse fruit," were popular for centuries and featured in Chaucer's "Canterbury Tales" and Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet," but they fell out of fashion and mostly forgotten about by the 1950s.
