The salmonberry and blackberry seasons were quite delightful. |
They are abundant in early-successional shrub habitats and in salmonberry thickets. |
The genus also includes the blackberry, cloudberry, dewberry, and salmonberry, and is part of the rose family. |
The forest floor is thick with sword ferns, vine maple, salmonberry shrubs and clover with leaves as big as quarters. |
The paler, often orange salmonberry, R. spectabilis, is named not because of its colour but because American Indians in the north-west often ate it with salmon roe. |
There are plenty of the buds of blueberry and fresh new leaves of salmonberry and salal for the deer to nosh on. |
