hmmm. it's hard to say.
But it sounds like...Hi!<br />hmmm. it's hard to say.<br />But it sounds like a blueberry!, besides the leave coming to a point is also serrated?<br />I wonder if it is the vacccinium caespitosum. And when your raspberies are ripe, wow, then i say, so could be your blueberries.<br />I say, the more common blueberry in your neck of the woods is vaccinium uliginosum, it has oval leaves They all are here on this blog.jozienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10212900310477832041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1540867077673910370.post-62323802751730301262010-07-09T12:07:32.682-07:002010-07-09T12:07:32.682-07:00Hi there
I'm a camp cook working off the top ...Hi there<br /><br />I'm a camp cook working off the top of the world highway and an inspired berry picker.<br /><br />I have a question for you... because my books aren't giving me any insight.<br /><br />So the other day I was mushroom picking off the side of one of roads that sort of winds it way up the side of a mountain. Off the side of the road I saw lots of low cranberries and mixed in there was also something that looks an awful lot like blueberries. The unripe berries are greenish/white and have ripened to blueberry blue. The bottom of the unripened berry is slightly indented.<br /><br />When crushed the ripe berry had a purplish interior/juice that smelled a lot like a blueberry.<br /><br />The bush is about one to two feet tall and has small leaves that go to a point at the end.<br /><br />So it looks like a blueberry, smells like a blueberry... but really, it is way to early for blueberries. Isn't it? We've had nothing but rain for the past month. I had tea with a lady who has lived in this area for 20 years and she said that the raspberries always come before the blueberries. The cranberries near these "blueberries" in fruit as well.<br /><br />Any ideas?chief cook, bottle washerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10744440823232052550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1540867077673910370.post-74912789387912795142010-07-02T16:50:40.511-07:002010-07-02T16:50:40.511-07:00I just found your blog and I am loving it!
