When is National Eat A Cranberry Day?
Thursday November 23rdovember 23rd, National Eat a Cranberry Day, invites us to try a piece of the bright red cranberry. But prepare yourself!
Granberry bushes are a species of evergreen dwarf shrubs, or trailing vines, that grow up to 7 feet long and 8 inches high in acidic bogs throughout the northern hemisphere's cooler regions. Their stems are short and wiry, and they have small evergreen leaves.
With very distinct reflexed petals, the cranberry flowers are dark pink with a strong reflexed petals, leaving the style and stamens fully visible and pointing forward. When ripe, the fruit of the cranberry plant is larger than the leaves and is initially white, but when ripe, it turns to a deep red.
