"My best guess is either Vaccinium caespitosum or Vaccinium deliciosum. It’s one of those two species. I have trouble distinguishing between the two."
So either dwarf bilberry or Cascade bilberry.

"Blueberry," "bilberry," and "huckleberry" are pretty arbitrary terms. They're all Vaccinium, and they're all edible.retired jerry wrote: ↑October 9th, 2018, 8:00 pmthere isn't much difference between blueberry and bilberry
