Field Evaluation of Plants and Fruit

This is a mature edible blue honeysuckle berry from an edible blue honeysuckle plant that is native to Canada.


These plants (below) were collected from all across Canada...some even emerge with red leaves in the spring...does this indicate different anthocyanin composition?


If neutriceutical value is found in the skin of fruit, does that mean that odd-shaped varieties, such as this one of Japanese parentage, have a greater health value?
