Description

The listing, Beautyberry Bush Seeds has ended.

All pictures except of the seeds, have been taken from the internet. Beautyberry Bush grows wild around here (Mississippi). These seeds were taken from a wild bush. The bush itself is not much to look at until it is covered in berries, hence the name. But the berries are a vivid purple that more than make up for the tiny white flowers in the Spring. You will getting a dozen seeds.
These come from a smoke free home with live in pets.
Thanks for looking and Shazam!

Yes but I haven't eaten any.

I mean if the grandkids were to pick one raw? Is it okay to eat without cooking?

If they make jelly from it, I can't see it harming anybody. Have you Googled it to see?

No, Cindy, I have not. I was just wanting to know your 1st hand experience. Thanks for trying. I still like it. F & W.

I've never eaten any and haven't heard of anybody getting sick from them. I didn't even know you could make jelly from the berries until somebody on one of my auctions provided the link. They grow wild here so there aren't any in the back yards. Just out in the woods. Sorry I can't be more help. It's just nobody I know of personally has eaten any of the berries.

I have looked this up online and found that it isn't poisonous.
