Is this normal?

Found in Lincoln Woods State Park in Rhode Island.

I'm looking for recommendations of new plants that I can make syrups, jams, etc out of, but that I can't find in typical superstores or nurseries. I live in a 5a zone and have had varying success. The soil around here is very alkaline so any that need acid would need to be in containers.

Would it be best to repot strawberry plant before or after winter? Basically, before I knew more about strawberries or plants in general, I planted 2 strawberry plants in a big pot. I would like to give them their own separate pots. But of course would like to minimize the risk of it not surviving transplant

I'm berry nuts about this topic. Anyone want to take on the Driscoll giant?

Found in my yard in Montana. Not a great picture, sorry! Also not sure where it came from.

But what are they? They are growing on a tree/bush next to my driveway and I've never noticed this having berries before so I'm curious as to what it is. Located in northwest Indiana.

Will von blackberries produce well in areas with high heat summers such as inland California and Arizona? I have several thornless varieties from the University of Arkansas that handle my very hot summers but the high yield stats and flavor descriptions I've seen for Von, which was developed by North Carolina State University, are very tempting. That said I can't seem to find any antidotes online from anyone who has tried them in these more high heat conditions. So before I pull the gun and put in a order for three rows of these guys, has anyone here had success growing von in triple-digit summer locations?

Located in Southern California, just popped up in my backyard one day, want to make sure they won't get the dogs sick.

First time grower, berries mostly still hard and somewhat sour, but the few soft ones are delicious! But I’m in New England and it’s mid October so the frost isn’t far off…. Lee Reich (“Uncommon fruits”) says as long as you’re getting 8-10%Brix, they’ll ripen up after picking. Anyone have ideas/experiences to share?

Planted these bad boys mid-summer with the idea to grow a nice thick wall of berries to help feed my berry loving kids. They're growing a lot and have sprouted one volunteer plant closest to the house. I am stoked on the growth, but be honest, am I cooked? 😅 Are these going to take over my life/yard?

First year berry grower here. I have meeker raspberries. I am looking for pruning advice. To the best of my knowledge they are summer fruiting. Do I prune down to the ground? We got barely any fruit this year

I was on a walk today and i got these berries. I got small red ones if a bush, The big red one off of a tree, and i dont remember how i got the yellow ones. I am in South East Michigan, Oakland County, so if anyone knows i would be happy.

The stems are red and thin, and the leaves are large with three separate sections in each singular leaf. The slighhtly underripe ones are hard, with green insides, while the riper ones are similar to boba, and have a runny purple liquid inside. Western massachusetts

Edit: Clarification

My school has a bunch of vines growing all over it, and the vines have these tiny, pea sized berries that are green and hard when unripe and deep purple when ripe. They pop really easily and dyed my hands severely enough that it took a couple washings to get rid of.

Was hiking earlier today and I saw these berries along side the trail. Are these poisonous or are they edible? Ty.

Found in South FL, someone might have eaten them..(not me) Are these poisonous?
