Excellent presentation on one of our favorite larders. It is great to see such an organic response to invasives! We're currently working on uses of purple loosestrife. Right on using the latin epiteph to avoid confusion. GO RE-WILDING! Hope to see you on the trail!
I didn't even know what they were till last year. Now I harvest them and freeze them up for various concoctions.
I am going to start uploading some of my recipes soon.
One easy to to keep them to use over the winter is to blend them up add a bit of water and freeze them in cube try to add to tea and other things to keep you healthy all year.
Native to China, Japan. They are deciduous so they grow in temperate climates, not sure how they will do in a tropical climate. Can take lots of cold, but I don't know how extreme Arctic you can get before they have problems. If you can grow plums and apples, you're probably fine.

Kevin, where is this garden? I'd like to try some berries. I'm assuming it's somewhere in the East Bay.

Oh my gosh, I am getting hungry. Can't wait to start a massive permaculture garden of my own.

Good video again... makes me wish they would grow here... USDA says they are only in two north Florida counties.
