Berries

Like large plants, seeds need light, air, water, and space to grow. Seeds mostly grow in spring, when the soil warms in the sun and there is plenty of rain. Some seeds are planted on purpose by people to grow flowers, fruit and vegetables.

A snowberry is a type of plant that produces small white berries. The berries are not edible for humans as they can be poisonous if ingested in large quantities. Snowberries are commonly used in floral arrangements and landscaping for their ornamental value.

Cocoa beans are the dried and fully fermented seeds of the cacao tree. They contain a variety of components including cocoa solids, cocoa butter, and other natural compounds that contribute to the flavor and nutritional profile of chocolate. These beans are typically roasted, cracked, and processed to make cocoa powder, cocoa butter, and ultimately chocolate products.

Mulberry Trees can reach 20 or so feet tall (ours are quite tall) and have heart shaped leaves on them. The bark is light brown and kind of smooth. They have white, dark purple or red fruit resembling a blackberry but smaller. The fruit when ripe is very sweet and great for pies, jams and fresh off the tree. Most trees in the USA are of the dark red/purple- almost black- type. The fruit aren't ready unless they fall into your hand as you try to pick them. You should not have to pull on ripe berries.

# no there is no such thing as a berry good

Yew berries are extremely poisonous if ingested, as they contain toxic compounds known as taxanes. Ingesting even a small amount can be fatal, so it is important to keep them away from children and pets. Symptoms of yew berry poisoning include difficulty breathing, seizures, and cardiac arrest.

The yew berry is a small, red, berry-like fruit surrounded by a fleshy, cup-shaped structure called an aril. The aril is bright red and looks like a small cup or shell encasing the yew berry. It is important to note that the yew berries are toxic if ingested.

Birds eat it - get drunk - fall off the bush - get eaten by the cat. In that respect the berries are very fatal.

This link suggests that the berries are completely edible and can be used for jams and jellies http://plantanswers.tamu.edu/recipes/pyracanjelly.HTML while the Center for Poisen Control says the berries are "mildly" toxic and cause gastric upset in some people http://www.calpoison.org/public/plants-toxic.HTML. There are other links that suggest the berries are toxic:

So - unless you are a cat looking for a bird that has eaten too much - or unless you are a Texas Aggie with a taste for adventure - its probably best to avoid eating the berries.

Renewable-you can always grow more next season

Roughly 10pounds

yes because they are not poisonous

Yes, you can eat the seeds in cranberries.

South Americans eat papaya, bananas, oranges, lemons, limes, and guava.

it is called Black plant

Yesssssszzzzzzzzzzz..... but they have a stringent bite at the end of tasting that would prevent anyone from eating too many, that is they are not really very good!

A strawberry, thoguh it is called a "false fruit" or a "psuedocarp" [being vastly different from a normal fruit] is counted as a fruit under the title of an 'accesory fruit'.

Fruits are, in essence, the ripened ovary or ovaries of a seed-bearing plant, including the seeds. Fruits are divided into further subsections, depending on the number of ovaries the plant has or where the fruits edible portion is contained. The strawberry breaks most of the rules, as the bulk of its edible portion does not come from the ovary. Rather, a fleshy thimble shaped base grows, that many ovaries/tiny fruits grow out, looking like tiny seeds set into little dimples. In actuallity, each one of these fruits, known as 'achenes', contains a small seed inside of it.

Strawberries are [very similar too] aggregate fruits. An aggregate fruit, such as a rasberry or blackberry, is formed from a cluster of ripened overies/fruits bunching together, having originated from the same flower. Wheras, the construction of a strawberry is actually a modified receptacle, the true fruits of the strawberry being the seed-like little things embedded in it.

1. mold: biochemical change as the fungus digests and eats the berries
2. cooked: chemical change as heat triggers hydrolysis of proteins and starches in the berries
3. blended: physical as blender blades chop the berries into puree

Pint is volume, gram is weight. The result wold be different depending on the density of the substance.

One can purchase Shari's Berries from a few places. These include the Berries website, some specialist local retailers as well as online retailers such as Amazon.

This is the "Miracle Berry" plant; if you were to eat a berry from it, and then tasted a lemon or other tart/sour food, it would taste sweet. The effect lasts for about an hour. We have one growing in our yard in Hawaii.

Yes, as are cherries, apples, pears, plums, quince, raspberries and blackberries. Who knew a rose garden could be so delicious? :)

As far as I know there is not, but in the book Hatchet Brian (main character) eats what is called Gut berries when he is in the Canadian Wilderness.

Don't ever try to bounce a pineapple, you will just bruise it, and then it will taste like mush

Step one: get cranberries.

Step two: get freezer.

final step: freeze cranberries.

there is no actual cooking as the key word here is "frozen". To un-freeze simply remove cranberries from freezer.... DON'T PUT IN SNOW!
