Tony, Rhus integrifolia, lemonade berry

We’ve been seeing many plants getting ready for the summer drought and that means it's time for us to be collecting seeds from these plants! Today Tony is telling us about the lemonade berry (𝘙𝘩𝘶𝘴 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘨𝘳𝘪𝘧𝘰𝘭𝘪𝘢). Tony is actually collecting these seeds to share them with a botanical garden in Australia! Listen in and make your reservation to see this plant at the Garden!

Not a whole lot of likes on this video, but thank you for all the work you I guys do. I’m trying to research more about these species and maybe even use a few specimens as bonsai subjects.

Very interesting! What is the name of the other botanical garden in Australia?

[@shanequa555]

Just be careful if you get a plant called the Audrey II

Can I eat this berry?

Yep it seems so! I've never eaten it but I've seen a number of other people eating it online. Love ❤

Yes absolutely! When they're a bright red colour, you can suck on their outside and they're quite delightful. I tend to pop them in a water bottle and you get almost a lemonade-like taste in your drink.

Yes, 100% edible. They can get extremely sour. Add salt and dry chili pepper and they become mouth watering. Delicious!
