When I grew up we had a yard full of hedgeapple trees, and every year my father would cut one down to use for firewood. You're mistaken about its flammability, Looburst - it's so dense it can be difficult to set on fire, but once it gets going it's a magnificent firewood. It's so resinous it burns brightly for an incredibly long time. It was definitely our favorite wood to burn in our fireplace.
