| We have some of these out in our forest. The berries are a lot different tasting than the bramble berries. The plants are way different looking too. They look like a tree, and the leaves are pointy. The blooms look just like that! I finally found out what they were when I got an old Native Plants and Wildflowers book at a thrift store.(From 1934!) It's a great book. Now I can ID anything out there! The book also said that these berries make the best pies. |
