Here's an interesting case of confusion on common names.  Salmonberry in
Scandanavia, and northern parts of America, is Rubus chamaemorus.  Here in
Oregon, it's another species (can't think if it's R. spectabilis or
something else).  The one here is a tall, thorny shrub, while the northern
one is a low growing mat.
