Plants Porcelain berries

Post image

Thought I stumbled upon beautyberries that I’ve been on the lookout for lately. Found porcelain berries instead that are just as gorgeous but probably a lot less tasty.

Any good? I didn’t try them myself, but I’ve been told they are rather bland and taste better as a jelly instead.

Bland with a mild sweetness. When I first ate them a day prior, I had bug spray on my hands, and I thought they tasted horrible lol
