Average Rating (3.69 Stars):

There are many species of this plant found all over the world, and the Southeastern United States has this beautiful variety. I have to admit I'd never heard of it until I saw it growing in a community garden in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA. They can grow to around five feet high and five feet in girth, and after blooming they are just covered with these gorgeous berries.

The berries are highly astringent and don't taste terrific, but they serve as a survival food for birds (Bobwhite Quail, for example), some animals (Whitetail deer, etc.), and even some caterpillars. People do make jams and jellies from them, but I can't attest to how good or bad they may taste.

This picture was taken in Philadelphia on October 12, 2012. For some additional information on these showy shrubs you can visit:

I always wanted to try photography, and my retirement offered an opportunity to do just that. The natural world is my first love. Here you will find pictures of things both large (landscapes, for instance) and small (macro) that catch my eye. I hope the images serve as a window into the natural world many of you don't have the chance to see. In a sense, I'm trying to create a guided nature trail, sharing what information I have about the subject. I'm always grateful for new and better information and welcome all input. Learning is food for the mind and soul. Nothing is ever harmed in the picture-taking process, but some things that wander into our home (like spiders) are carefully removed from the house after they serve as "models"....
