ground-berry
ground-berry is a hyphenated botanical noun for certain low-growing shrubs with distinctive fruits—not just a casual way to describe a berry near the ground. In one sense, it names the eastern North American wintergreen plant, Gaultheria procumbens, with aromatic leaves and spicy red berry-like fruits. But the word can also point to an Australian shrub, Astroloma humifusum, with scarlet flowers and cranberry-like fruit. The useful question is how context, geography, and the hyphen help you know which plant is meant. Watch the full lesson to learn how ground-berry works in natural botanical and foraging contexts.
