Oddly enough, you can buy MEDLAR JAM (they say it is comparable to apple
butter) from Raintree Nursery. You can order a catalog from their web
site. http://www.raintreenursery.com/
Here is the page to their food items, but for some reason I don't see the
Medlar jam listed here. It was quite expensive if I remember
right. Anyway, you could call them and ask if they still have any in stock
for sale.

I never did get to order a tree or any jam. I'm still working on my
re-landscaping project though. I just got in my two fig trees, and have to
get them planted now.
