1

Bilberry

Vaccinium myrtillus

A small dark blue European wild berry — close cousin of the blueberry, but smaller, darker, more intensely flavored, and almost impossible to cultivate commercially.

2

Honeydew

Cucumis melo (Inodorus group)

A pale-green melon with smooth white-yellow rind and pale-green flesh, milder and sweeter than cantaloupe — a summertime hydration fruit.

3

Mulberry

Morus alba, Morus nigra, Morus rubra

A long, blackberry-like fruit grown across temperate regions of the world — often available free from neighborhood trees, vital for silkworms, and beloved by birds.

4

Physalis

Physalis peruviana

The golden berry in a papery lantern — physalis (cape gooseberry) is a small, bright orange berry enclosed in a papery husk that peels back like a Chinese lantern to reveal the sweet-sharp fruit inside; used as a decorative garnish on desserts, eaten fresh, and made into jam; not related to the gooseberry despite the name.

5

Tayberry

Rubus fruticosus × idaeus

A 1970s Scottish blackberry-raspberry hybrid named for the river Tay — long sweet-tart wine-red fruit with intense flavor, popular in home gardens but virtually absent from supermarkets.

Yumberry

Myrica rubra

Also called yangmei or Chinese bayberry — a knobbly red or purple fruit native to East Asia with sweet-tart flavor, high antioxidant content, and a brief, fragile fresh season.
