True blue of native berries

-

I enjoyed the blueberry recipes in the May/June 2017 issue of LandScape, but I think people are beginning to think blueberrie­s are native to England. We have our own here, the bilberry, also known as whortleber­ry or blaeberry, which grows on moors and in woods in Scotland. You can also grow them at home. They are not tart, but I find a little lemon juice helps. Catherine Koppana, Newark LandScape says: Our native bilberries were featured in the July/August 2014 issue - and we agree they are lovely.
