Deer berries... by marlboromaam

Deer berries...

Still not ripe yet, but keeping my eye on them since I posted their blossoms back in the spring...

It's a wild native shrub and a member of the blueberry family. It's found in Georgia, North and South Carolina. Not sure about any of the other southern states. The little bell shaped blossoms are very small (much smaller than my little finger nail). It's growing wild on the far left side of my front and backyards in the shade of the wild pine, oak, mocker nut, sassafras, sweet gum and dogwood trees.
You really captured the light nicely here.

Wow, fabulous job with the lighting. It is fun to see their progress. So glad you posted the links so I could look back at the earlier shots.

@jdr4690 Thank you, Rob!

@pawar_ramesh Thank you, Ramesh!

@yonnie Thank you, Yvonne! It is fun to see their progress.

@beckys Thank you, Becky! They are edible, but I've never tried one yet. I can imagine that they're a lot like wild strawberries though. Probably not much flavor. Wild tiny black cherries, on the other hand, are delicious!
