berry identified by photo
A friend who is renting a house has some berries in their garden about the
size of large grapes and a dark black colour and wishes to identify them. Since this group does not accept photos, how might I post a photo that could be looked at by those in this group please? |

Have now tasted one and they are a bit plum tasting, and not too sharp. This family has young children, so if they are damsons then i guess its ok for them to go ahead and 'scoff'? |

If they're damson, don't bother making anything other than jam with them - the jam is divine. Cat(h) Cat(h) |
