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?

I use this website when I need to do this:

www.tinypic.com

Upload your photo as indicated on the tinypic site, then, just copy
and past a link to it in your UKRG post, and people can go and see
your pickie.

Many Thanks. here is the web url.

They're not berries, they're damsons!

I would have said sloes, a quick taste will determine (if sloes it
will feel as if all your teeth are being sandpapered!)


They're damsons.

I have both, I thought the damsons were enormous sloes, but they're not.
Also the leaf is wrong for a sloe.
