The berries on the beautyberry bushes have started turning color now. I love the color of these berries. They grow wild all over our property, mostly as understory trees. The crushed leaves are supposed to be good mosquito repellents, although i have never tried that. And the pretty berries make good wine or jam. #grownostr #permies #homesteading #beautyberry

There was a study that said the leaves are more effective than DEET.
