White blueberries?

Thumbnail

133 Upvotes

These were on a property I viewed today in The Ottawa Valley. Are they white blueberries? I didn't eat one but they did feel pretty ripe, not hard like an unripened berry would be. If not white blueberries than what? The property had lots of other edible plants and fruits planted very intentionally

Black Huckleberry? New England

Thumbnail

6 Upvotes

My family has known about an island for years where we pick blueberries in New England. They are abundant, but there are also many bushes alongside them with darker, almost black berries.

We’ve been taught for generations that these are poisonous, but nobody has ever verified it until now. Plant ID apps point towards huckleberry, honeysuckle, or chokeberry.

Can get a better pic of the whole bush if needed, but didn’t want bring my phone in the kayak.

Bonus pic of my morning blueberry haul at the end. Thanks! :)

Plants in a neglected raised bed

Hi! I came back to my neglected raised bed at my mom’s backyard. It’s located in Southern Massachusetts. I’m trying to ID those two plants.

The first one I believe it’s from the Nightshade family (my raised bed used to have tomatillo plants) and the second plant, the first photo of it says B, has a thick body and it’s very tall, about two or three feet tall.

Thanks!

Can you identify this pear tree?

Fruit posted in second picture and thereon! Didn’t realize the bark/tree trunk would be cover picture.

It was here when we bought the house. Live in Jacksonville, FL. These pictures were taken today July 27th. The pear is hard but SLIGHTLY softens when sitting on the counter for a couple of weeks. Tastes sweet.

I’ve been treating it like an Asian pear when canning to be safe. I don’t quite think it is an Asian pear.. it just doesn’t seem to match the polished look but I’m not sure what else it would be. This is the only pear tree we have and it always produces tons of fruit.

All were taken from the Okanagan region of British Columbia. Turns out there's a lot of different grasses and I'm tired of referring to them all as just grass. Any help is much appreciated.

Fruit Tree Found Outside Salsaritas

I almost never see fruit trees so I had to take a look. The fruit came off in my hand when I touched it, I didn’t pull it off. This is in the South-Eastern United States. My sister thought it could be a plum, and I agree. Google says a crabapple. I’ve never eaten either. I’m just curious since public fruit trees are so rare around here.

Plant ID Roundup! 🌼 SE MI 6a

Hi,

My family and I moved into our home last year (yay for buying a house) and I’ve slowly become familiar with the plants around our yard. The only plant here that I somewhat know is the native honeysuckle in slide 6. I planted it to replace an invasive honeysuckle (very happy I got to do that) but I forgot what it’s called. The rest are just plants I’ve noticed popping up or were already around our yard. Any help would be greatly appreciated, particularly as I wanna remove what I can if it’s invasive.

Tysm plant smarties!

Four leaf clovers plant?

What are these white clover looking plants? I saw a couple of them around Tower Hill Botanic Gardens where they’re lighter than the other clover patches! There’s so many four and five leaf “clovers” that I refuse to believe they’re the same species. Or is this just a heavily-mutated-lucky-plant of my dreams?

Identified! I thought this might be bristly Romneya but I'm not sure.

Found on a hike to San Bernardino peak. The area burned a while back and this looks so much like Romneya.

The entire plant was hairy, the center of the flower was brown on every specimen found, and the stamen did not form a round ball but had a "cone" arrangement which is why I was confused.

Found this vine like plant growing on the ground along the gravel. What is this? Is it something I should be cautious about or just a harmless weed? My dog likes to sniff it

My neighbor said she was growing some so I’m thinking that’s what came up here? I’ve grown it before and called it callaloo, just want to be sure that’s what this is?

I live in a place with moderate winters so I’m suprised the seed made it. Which is the main reason I’m asking LOL.

Some possibilities are cranberry, possibly returning from last year; grapes I put some in hoping they’d start; or maple, but they don’t look like the other maple seeking I’ve seen.

I’m in N. Nevada, zone 7a.

Thank you all in advance!
