I am not really sure of their name, but my plant app tells me they are known as Tea Berries. Is this what tea is made of?

Fiction Writing
I am Ahmed Abdi, a Wordpress blogger and storyteller who searches for stories that inspire people. I love writing because it’s a reflection of how I perceive the world around me. Lost in a world of endless chaos in my childhood, Unforgettable moments of tragedy and triumphs taught me the art of storytelling where I found myself through letter writing and then turned into stories but then sadly had lost everything I wrote for years. In 2018, I decided to create a Wordpress blog site that would allow me to store and retrieve every piece. Stories from my community, city and people are what make my writing so interesting and inspiring! I’m a tea lover so a cup of tea sometimes makes my blog.

They are so pretty. Do birds eat them in winter?

Looks like wintergreen to me. Crack open one of the berries and see what it looks and smells like. If it’s a spongy white color and smells like wintergreen, you’ll know. They are edible.

Not sure if you have Teaberry gum, but I’m sure they use wintergreen flavor in it.

p.s. I just read at wikipedia that the leaves can be brewed like tea, which is what early settlers used when they had no tea. The berries contain something similar to the ingredient in aspirin and can be used medicinally.

All correct. It is still used for herbal tea, although ‘real’ tea (such as black tea and green tea) is made from undeveloped leaves of tea camellias. We grew it briefly, but discontinued because the marketability was so limited. I will likely grow it in my own garden. Some of the old stock plants must remain out in the arboretum. It would be easy enough to relocate one or more to my own garden, or just grow a few new copies. I like how it flavors sweetened coffee and all sorts of tea (although I do not often drink tea).
