Crataegus mollis-downy hawthorn

I know this tree is native to where maybe most Americans live. I ate some at a botanic garden and I thought it was delicious. Did you know that hawthorns have edible leaves for a vegetable and that they are medicinal for your heart? Do any of you eat this fruit regularly?
We have many wild hawthorns here, but not that one.
Thanks,

John S
