I realized that I didn't mention what lenticels are actually for! They are pores in the bark that allow gas exchange, oxygen in, carbon dioxide, and water vapor out. Let me know what wild fruit tree you'd like me to cover winter identification for next! I hope you'll be able to join my free Introduction to Winter Tree Identification class! - kzbin.infoN3o5BRuD4BM

I live in Nor Cal and I have a tree behind my home with berries and leaves. It is winter right now. Is this not an elderberry if it's still with leaves?

[@FeralForaging]

@@MARCYGIRL3 it could be depending on the climate. You can send photos to our discord foraging community for ID help!

[@MARCYGIRL3]

Thank you! I am totally down to learn everything foraging and what to look for. If I am sitting on an elderberry tree I will be so sad that I didn't find out sooner. I truly hope it is!

[@FeralForaging]

@@MARCYGIRL3 me too!

[@texasplumber1]

It’s great to see someone who really enjoys spreading knowledge. Keep up the fantastic work!

[@ASaleh-bn8dm]

What a way of explaining what can be a no end explanation.. Thank YOU.

[@FeralForaging]

You're very welcome!

[@user-pw8qj2gt1p]

You RULE

I wish you covered the PNW west of the Cascades! Lots of your videos like this one are still relevant to me, but I would love this quality level of content with the same vibes on my region

[@FeralForaging]

Unfortunately I'm in the exact opposite region of North America. Would be fun to get to visit and profile PNW some day though! :D

[@isaacbradley3779]

I can’t wait to go searching for this awesome tree! Thanks for the amazing content!

[@oliverjudson1834]

Thanks this helped me find some elderberry.

[@FeralForaging]

Glad to hear that!

[@kenmartin9106]

Look for their white flowers late June I think

[@AFMR0420]

When I was a child, an old man, a self proclaimed druid, told me the knowledge about this plant was one of the most suppressed information from the old world. Don’t know how true that was.

[@TheLoveHealingCompany]

We need this yes. We make the best elderberry elixer alkaline ingredients no tap water 💪 get some now

[@KathysTube]

Cool! Thanks 😎👍🦃

[@FeralForaging]

Thanks for watching!

[@sandrafreeman515]

I've always heard about PawPaw trees, but have never seen one in my area even though they are supposed to be native to my area. Could you do a video on PawPaw trees?

[@crh03fan]

Do you have a link to the map that was 18 seconds into the video? Looks like a handy resource for identification.

[@FeralForaging]

It was just a search on iNaturalist!

[@adiscatic2058]

In Bosnia elderberries are bright red color, never seen black one.

[@guacre2675]

"Sambucus racemosa" is what you're thinking of. He's showing sambucus nigra.

[@laylamctavish8122]

Do you have rowan/ mountain ash trees (sorbus aucuparia) where you are? Google says the berries are edible when cooked, but its cousin the cotoneaster has poisonous berries, and the tree version looks a lot like rowan. Cotoneaster horizontalis looks nothing like rowan, and im pretty confident in my ability tell them apart

[@laylamctavish8122]

Also, i hate the rose family. Whoever decided that all flowers belonging to plants in the rose family are roses needs a slap. Roses are on rose plants, not apples and cherries and rowans and plums. Im not going to go into too much detail, just know it makes me angry

[@FeralForaging]

None near me I’m afraid. If I’m ever in an area with them I’ll try to at least make a short!

[@BosomBuddyCreations]

good video. How about butternut trees?

[@FeralForaging]

I’ve only found very young ones. If I come across one in the wild I’ll try to cover it!

[@BosomBuddyCreations]

Thanks !@@FeralForaging

[@stringsofhell]

Wonderful video! I love how much you focus on potential look alikes! Keep it up, man!

[@FeralForaging]

Thank you! Glad you liked it. 😄
