I never heard of crusaders destroying a species of vegetation. Can someone help me out?

Precisely my question. How and why? I should think that the Crusaders were too busy with other endeavors to take the time to be destroying trees.

Another thought -- the meat of this date could have been nibbled by Christ (34 AD). That thought just gives me shivers!

Yes it does. I just hope the tree is self fruiting.
