Tree/bush with blue berries - what is it?
THAT'S IT!!!!!!!!!!!!1
The picture in the first link is dead on. Also the description in the uconn site is very accurate. The berries, BTW, are not really fleshy. I cut one open and it has a hard seed inside. Anyhow, here are more pictures of mine for comparison. http://www.panix.com/~nradisch/berriescut.jpg http://www.panix.com/~nradisch/leavesbottom.jpg http://www.panix.com/~nradisch/leavestop.jpg Thanks you everyone for helping me with this mystery. Neil "Leon Fisk" wrote in message news Hi Neil, I may have found it. Sapphire Berry or Asiatic Sweetleaf (symplocos paniculata). See the following links and see what you think. http://www.keystonetree.com/saphire.jpg http://www.esveld.nl/htmldiaen/s/sypani.htm http://ridgwaydb.mobot.org/kemperweb....asp?code=T710 http://www.hort.uconn.edu/plants/s/sympan/sympan1.html It is an import from China and Japan. Makes it hard to find in our native books You can do your own Google search using the latin name if you want to explore this further. I didn't find very many images of it... -- Leon Fisk Grand Rapids MI/Zone 5b Remove no.spam for email |
