How sweet of you to let DB have the first too. You are just a gem. :-) It is looking like a good berry year here as well. The elderberry has the most ever and the winterberry hollies have lots of little green promises for a colorful fall. I love your blue viburnum berries. We planted several a couple of years ago, for the berries, including some called Cardinal Candy. No berries on them yet but Winterthur and Brandywine both have some. Blue Muffin got pruned but will have a few. The birds should be well fed this winter. :-)<br />FrancesFranceshttp://fairegarden.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1376606540097525538.post-8774076973517695932009-07-30T02:59:42.214-04:002009-07-30T02:59:42.214-04:00Beautiful berries one and all -- and especially th...Beautiful berries one and all -- and especially the one ripe blackberry.<br /><br />The peak of our wild blackberry harvest was in late June since we are farther south.

My Ilex verticillata are in bloom now, so hopefully we'll have lots of berries on them come fall. We have black chokeberry, amelanchier, highbush cranberry (Viburnum) red osier dogwood and of course rose hips. I also planted three wild raisins (V. cassinoides) last year but I don't expect them to fruit for another year or so. My weeping Chamaecyparis also has cones on it, and the spruce are loaded, and there will be berries on the bittersweet...all of this later, of course.

You can drive an hour or so to get to the you-pick places. Northern IL winters used to be too cold for blackberries. <br /><br />In Illinois we grew red raspberries and wild black raspberries and this would have been prime time for them. <br />They won't grow here - my garden has nothing for people but we have Burford and Yaupon hollies and native purple Beauty Berry for the birds. Think the hot little Chile Pequin peppers count as berries, too. <br /><br />Thanks for the refreshing post at the end of July! <br /><br />Annie at the Transplantable RoseAnnie in Austinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14662139490401110432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1376606540097525538.post-11556167720481310302009-07-27T11:12:26.436-04:002009-07-27T11:12:26.436-04:00Are any of the other berries edible to you?
