My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Goumi berries are ripening!

9 years ago

Someone asked a while ago about goumi bushes so I wanted to post some photos of mine in fruit. These are Eleagnus multiflora, or Cherry Elaeagnus. The flavor is cherry-like or can be like a mix of cranberry and cherry. Easy care shrubs, nitrogen fixing low water needs, prune only if you want to keep them small. Don't confuse them with Autumn Olive their highly invasive cousin.

A shot of my hand with unripe berries on my 'Large Fruited Form'.


Showing the difference of a smaller normal sized Goumi with the big fruited form.
