Birds and wildlife love both juniper berries and elderberries. Juniper bushes not only provide berries for birds but also nesting habitats.

Throughout the history of dress, brooches have served many functions. They were initially invented solely for utilitarian purposes-- to hold together cloaks and tunics during ancient times of the Roman Empire.

Today, brooches are still a popular form of jewelry, one that can add flash and fun to any ensemble, and there are many different types available.

Being able to recognize fads and understand fashion as a form of artistic expression is the surest way to develop timeless taste and create a personal, distinctive style.

Southern Highbush are a hybrid of Northern Highbush and the native Southern species, making it more suitable for the warmer climates of the Southern United States. Lowbush Blueberries (Vaccinium angustifolium) often are referred to as wild blueberries because they grow naturally in Maine, Quebec and Atlantic Canada. Large stands of naturally growing Lowbush varieties are harvested commercially each year, but they are not planted commercially.

Similar common names within the two groups can confuse gardeners, as can the similar appearances of some species and varieties.
