I live in NE Alabama and have a large shrub 10 ft+ (40+ yrs.) every spring it has tons of edible sour berries?
I have always wanted to know what it was and many others have commented when seeing it. The berries start around May each year and they are small, rough and hang from individual stems each with a small pit.
Thanks for reply David, unfortunately, what I’ve got doesn’t appear to be either of those. The red chokeberry seems close, but the berry’s skin is not smooth like that, it is very pourous (almost gritty to taste). As I stated the shrub we have is HUGE. It has been in the yard for around 50 yrs. and is now double the size of most SUV’s (height & girth). I’d LOVE to finally be able to know what it is. Thanks again!
I’m guessing the first link, if not see table 2-1 in link two good luck,Couldn’t just give you the answer that would be too easy.
