Title: An Evergreen Huckleberry Industry Near the Oregon Coast in the Early 20th Century
Author: J.D. Postman
Abstract:
The evergreen huckleberry (Vaccinium
ovatum Pursh) is an important ornamental
plant in northwestern United States
landscapes.
The native range of this species
extends along the Pacific coast from central
California north through Oregon and
Washington, USA into British Columbia,
Canada (1,5). While an excellent ornamental,
Vaccinium ovatum has recently been planted
in Oregon's Willamette Valley for commercial
fruit production.
Although this may seem
like a new crop for Oregon, commercial
production, at least on a small scale, has a
long history in this region.
