Over at 52 Photos Project, this week is "Round" & so I bring you Beauty Berry. They are native, seasonal & round. The berries are round & they form these round clusters around the stem (this photo is actually of three clusters very close together, which makes them less round but the color is so wonderful! I didn't do anything to that photo. that's what they look like in the middle of an ordinary day.M****** told me her parents spend a good chunk of their outside time uprooting these plants because the berry-litter stains everything including concrete. It probably does, but I don't care. Every year I fling the berries all around the perimeter of our property, to attract the birds & repel the mosquitos.
So that's it: ROUND.
I almost used a picture of some pretty purple beauty berry too. Yours is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThey are gorgeous! It's a wonderful picture. I don't think I'd spend any time uprooting them, either. I'd keep anything that repelled mosquitoes! If the birds like them, are they human edible? Maybe some sweet jelly?
