A passage from Medicinal Plants of the Western Mountain States:
What all this means for the Madrone user is – take the tea daily for the treatment of non–complicated/non–organic UTIs, be them bladder or urethra oriented. Try 2–3 cups a day if in the throes of an active infection or 1 cup at the slightest urinary irritation. If Cranberry is found effective, Madrone should be as well.
A passage from Wild Edible Plants of Arizona:
Madrone berries are a fair edible. They are better tasting than Manzanita berries but not quite as good as Blueberries (all Heath family plants). In years of poor rainfall, they can be a bit mealy and only mildly sweet, but still, it’s a worthwhile plant to know, regardless of high or low precipitation.
