We have a fully grown cinnamon tree that flowers during the Christmas season After it gets its first shower these flowers turn into seeds and we get to see a sea of them on the ground
The entire area is strewn with seeds. I got them collected yesterday and clicked a photo. I think that is all I will do with them as although on browsing I see they are edible and are useful in many ways, I am not ready to eat them. What a waste!

@allknowing I just don’t know anything about that, but I’m sure other mylotters can be helpful. I’m just impressed you have a cinnamon tree, period. I have never known anyone who has.

I'd be willing to try eating them, yes... I like trying nuts and seeds as long as they're edible.

@allknowing I'm sorry more of it can't be consumed by something but at least it is used to make compost.

@allknowing I remember they sold cinnamon in the local open markets, but not the berries.

@allknowing So is the cinnamon we use for cakes, etc, made from the seeds from your tree?

@allknowing It is better if you seek help with those scientists or agricultural person who studies things like that. They might know something about how you can use it

@allknowing In fact I also tried to look up more information but it seemed there was no very useful information about it.
