For me, who grew up in an ordinary rural area in the Great Southwest, I have tasted all kinds of generous gifts from nature. Although the wild fruits in the mountains are no larger and more exquisite than the fruits from modern production in the city, the pure natural wild fruits that they have worked hard to pick are incomparably sweet and delicious.
spring
When the flowers are withered and the plants are growing vigorously in the late spring, before and after the planting of seedlings, the fruits in the mountains are a good time to pick.
Raspberry, also known as raspberry, mountain toss, milk bubble, sprinkler bubble, March bubble, April bubble, dragon boat bubble, barley bubble, bubble thorn
March bubble (we call it there), sour and sweet. Every year, he and his brother and sister would walk in the dew in the morning and go to the deep mountains and old forests to pick them at the freshest time. Find a clean paulownia leaf on the way, make a funnel shape, fill it with the picked March bubbles, and then find a place to enjoy it with your friends. Sometimes, the "peach" on the wild tea tree is also picked, which makes people happy for a while.
mulberry
The best mulberries I have ever seen grow on the tallest mulberry trees, and every year, with a few good friends, climb to the top of the tall trees and pluck the mulberries, in front of the monkey king. The ones who eat the most always have black teeth and mouths.
summer
In early summer, the sweet and sour prickly bubbles are ripe again.
Raspberries, also known as hanging hooks, raspberries, raspberries, tree plums, raspberries, wild berries...
Thorn Bubble (as we call it locally), much like March Bubble but not. On the way to and from school, you can go to the edge of the wasteland with your partner, pick up enough to eat and then go. It can be filled with kirisame leaves, but I prefer to use a plastic bottle because that would crush it while drinking delicious sweet juice.
There are many kinds of thorn bubbles, the above yellow, because it looks very similar to corn, so we call it bud valley bubbles. It didn't have the sour taste of the dark prickly bubbles above, just the sweet, sweet one.
In addition to the prickly bubbles, there are also milk seeds, tree sweet potatoes, sweet potatoes (the growth period is very long, the feeling is always there, but the summer is the best time to eat) and so on.
Sweet potatoes, also known as ground fruits, loquats, full of green, sweet potato vines, ground gall purple, ground pomegranates, mountain dragons, creeping dragons and so on
Sweet potatoes are my favorite food. The ripe sweet potatoes are sweet and delicious, and there is a fragrant smell that makes people feel endlessly evocative. Be very careful when picking sweet potatoes, because sweet potato vines grow in the grass, and it is possible that you will turn over a snake, a swarm of bees (I have swollen my hands for the stilted bees before), or even a piece of.
autumn
Entering the autumn, I feel that I have less to eat.
Wild August melon
August melon, this kind of melon everyone says is delicious. It's hard to find in the mountains, and it's probably eaten. I've only eaten it a few times, and I think there are so many seeds in it that it's not very tasty.
winter
In the winter, the only things I can probably find in the mountains are sugar pears and red zhen'er (we call them there, actually scientific names are firethorn).
Golden cherry blossoms, also known as elm, prickly pear, golden poppies, mountain pomegranates, pheasant heads, sugar cans
Fire thorn, also known as torch fruit, salvation food, red thorn, auspicious fruit.
Hong Zhen'er, eating is a bit astringent, but it is a relief food for going out to play. Adults often say that eating too much will stuff their butts, I have not dared to eat more, I don't know if it is.
