I am so happy you have Bababerries in you...Justin:<br /><br />I am so happy you have Bababerries in your garden. My grandmother (Baba) patented these berries in the early 1980s after finding them by the stream near her mountain house in Idllywild,CA. Being from Portland, OR, she recognized a hearty berry when she saw it. She sent the plants to friends in OR and in Palm Springs to test them in extreme climates and they seemed to weather most anything. Even in hot climates when the leaves "burn", they still seem to be unaffected. I was always amazed at the size of the berries. We had a desert tortoise growing up and she loved them, berries and leaves.<br /><br />Happy Gardening!<br /><br />Erin Thomas<br />Riverside, CAAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
