Removal of copy-paste template

Part of the article was not copied from myhouseholdcapers.blogspot.com/2009/03. Instead, the text on that website was copied and pasted from wikipedia. The blog is dated March 2009. The piece of text in question was added by User:Yoviana on 27 July 2008 (see revision 228160885) and not by User:TDogg310 as was stated by User:Nashville Monkey. User:TDogg310 merely moved it to a more appropriate place in the article on a later date. - Takeaway (talk) 04:23, 29 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Is the fruit edible?

Since it looks kind of like Jackfruit, I would imagine that that is the main reason people click on the article. But the article only talks about edibility of leaves and flowers by humans and edibility of the fruit to bats, mice, etc. but not to humans. Please clarify.174.56.55.37 (talk) 22:16, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The most widespread species are less edible than the Micronesian species P. tectorius. Added some material. Sminthopsis84 (talk) 00:08, 3 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Could somebody please add something to the article about the fruit, why is it not edible, what do people do with it? -- — Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.101.176.153 (talk) 16:40, 24 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This is an article about the genus. Edibility is more relevant to appropriate species articles. Peter coxhead (talk) 21:18, 24 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Identification

Somebody told me this tree is the Pandanus sp. The picture is from Panama, Latin America and it is abundant along the Caribbean shoreline. My questions are if this is indeed the Pandanus sp and if it is native to Panama? DeVerm (talk) 23:26, 4 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
