Thx

Thank you for all the videos you've published, such a fantastic resource for all. Question: do the berries of this plant typically appear/sit on the top of the leaves as opposed to red huckleberry where the berries hang underneath the leaves? From what I was seeing, that looked to be the case. That would seem like an important/useful point to mention. Thank you again!

Thanks! I'm not honestly sure if it is common for the berries to sit above the twig, but I don't think that is always the case.
