Are these "garden huckleberries" in the Solanum family http://www.tradewindsfruit.com/garden_huckleberry.htm  or in the Vaccinium family http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaccinium ?

This is the first year I’ve grown garden huckleberries – just picked my first batch, perhaps a bit early, as they were still somewhat firm; however, they’ve been black for at least 3-4 weeks and some seemed to be getting dehydrated. 

 

Anyway, made a pie, and I will agree with others that these make a great pie.  Taste like a combination of blueberries and, perhaps, boysenberries? 

 

I grew only 2 plants this year, but this is a plant I might expand upon next year – I’m sure the berries freeze well, and would love to make syrup of these.
