under another (planted) tree, and when he dragged it out to the front yard, I saw that it had black, oblong berries on it! I thought blackberries came on bushes with prickers... this was definatley a hardwood tree. Does anyone know what it might have been? Mulberry? Elderberry? Botany class has been a while ago!

Never heard of salmonberries. What do you do with high bush cranberries? I've never seen anyone - Marg CDN - 11:00am on 06/24/06

We use the high bush berries just like cranberries. Very tart--use a bit more sugar. [NT] - AngAk - 2:05pm on 06/26/06
