Blueberry Shrubbery
Last year I cleared out a bunch of underbrush in a part of our backyard at the edge of the woods that had been allowed by a previous owner to just grow. I first noticed an azalea blooming and then saw how some rocks had been arranged in a line and it prompted me to clean out the area. Well, this year I noticed a bush with lots of berries on it and I think it is a blueberry bush. Do any of y'all have a blueberry bush on your property, and if so does this look like a blueberry bush? I hope they are blueberries. I tried a few and they tasted like a blueberry and I didn't have any hallucinations after having a few of them. Lol. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...53f28eab6b.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...cf79d8ab50.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...7bf22c05e9.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...6da7584466.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...2c7cccbb9e.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...4d199e9570.jpg

Looks tasty.
We need more threads like this in the Politics and Religion forum. |
Not Blueberries but as a kid I used to see alot of wild blackberries, but for some reason not every year.
Wild Honeysuckles also. Now I'm craving the taste.... |

I was just outside and the birds really like the berries so I'd better get to picking if I want any more. Zack had fun picking them with me the other day.
Wish this could get moved to the normal off-topic section. I will try to edit the title when I get back home from work, til then... Sent from my SM-S916U using Tapatalk |

I hope you can make it work. There is nothing better than picking fruit from the source. |
Planted 20 blueberry bush in a line from the house to the lake. They survive but do not thrive. Damn birds get the most of it.

They look like blueberries. Could also be huckleberries. You can tell by the color if you open one up. Blueberries are lightly colored inside (green or white) and huckleberries are either blue or purple inside.
There are lots of wild blueberries along the parkway where people can pick them (near Asheville, NC) but the fruit attracts bears and rattlesnakes (they come for the rodents and birds that eat the berries) so you must be careful. |
Thanks. By that description, they are definitely blueberries then.

If you look at all the images in the link in post #3 you will see some with fringes and some without. The ones without are huckleberries. Sixth row down, second last picture. They are all Vaccinium genus. Tons of different species. Had a friends father try to commercially cultivate wild huckleberries. Didn't have much success as there is a symbiotic relationship between the one he was trying to cultivate and some kind of rhizome in the soil. He was working with the University of Calgary and it was the university guys who figured out the problem. He spent close to 1 million trying.

Well, I tried to change the title to "Blueberry Shrubbery" but I couldn't figure it out. I know in the past I have been able to edit a title but, I must be missing a step, so I guess it will be stuck here. Oh well.

Let's see if it sticks.
:cool: |

Interesting, I'd always thought that BB were a northern thing. It seems like 99% of the time when I buy them they are from Washington. |
