I haven't heard anyone recently mention this, but Autumn olive is on the
list of invasive plants for North Carolina, and for many other eastern
states. NC Botanical Garden, among other entities, recommends getting rid
of them where possible.
Ohio State did some taste-tests a few years ago of ice-cream syrups made
from eleagnus fruit. Tasters preferred strawberry, but autumn olive syrup
was still pretty yummy imho.
Why not collect fruit from existing wild stands instead of planting more?

Hi--
I do like all the hidden Spring autumn olives that I have, although I
enjoy Charlie's Gold sicne it is a gold color and has a slightly different
taste. They are the smallest of all I have though.-- all are better than the
sort of standard ones found growing in various public places around here.
This area is not one where they can run wild so we do not have the variety
of ones in public places in like the Carolinas and Tennessee where there
maybe some very good tasting wild ones.

Thanks very much for this information, Idell. I will contact HS to
purchase the variety you recommended. Also, I would be satisfied to have
a wild variety shown in the video I posted a link to. I imagine that
came from the upper midwest, maybe Wisconsin.
