Heather said...: Oh, no - they are definitely strawberries. The blackberries were in another area and much more plentiful - provided you could get to them, which I couldn't. The risk of poison ivy just isn't worth it, LOL.; Friday, July 16, 2010 9:53:00 AM
Jana said...: Look like raspberries to me! :-D; Friday, July 16, 2010 11:13:00 AM
Heather said...: No no no no! They are definitely strawberries. They are lower to the ground and not as brambly as the blackberries and raspberries. Come back tomorrow and I'll show you raspberries!; Friday, July 16, 2010 11:31:00 AM
Alice Audrey said...: They don't seem to be shaped right. Did man kind really warp the plant so much when we domesticated it?; Friday, July 16, 2010 4:57:00 PM
Tatiana Caldwell said...: I thought they were raspberries, too. All yummy to me, heh!; Friday, July 16, 2010 8:08:00 PM
Heather said...: Sigh... Y'all are just killin' me - Kill-in' me!. Trust me, these are wild strawberries. Yes, I know they look nothing like the berries you buy at the supermarket. They're a lot smaller and shaped a bit differently, but they are most definitely strawberries. Also, you don't have to break your back bending over or squat down to pick the raspberries as you do these.; Friday, July 16, 2010 11:47:00 PM
