Comments	This huckleberry plant was a staggering 5 feet 7 inches tall, with berries (in early August) that were 10-12mm in diameter, translucent from blue to red-purple in colour, with a very watery huckleberry flavor. The berry in the far left was an average size 6-7mm diameter from a different bush. The remaining pumpkin-shaped berries were from this large bush.
