Evergreen Huckleberry at Westwind

White bells soon to be purplish-black jewels of goodness. Vaccinium ovatum (Evergreen Huckleberry) is one of Westwind’s prolific plant verities. Various conditions (rain, temperature, etc.) affect the number of blossoms and size of fruit. In a few months it will be berry picking time!
