Malvidin Malvidin is an O-methylated anthocyanidin, the 3',5'-methoxy derivative of delphinidin. As a primary plant pigment, its glycosides are highly abundant in nature. Malvidin is responsible for the blue color found in petals of the "Primula" plants of the "polyanthus" group. Blue flowers of the blue pimpernel ("Anagallis monelli") have also a higher concentration of malvidin. It is responsible primarily for the color of red wine, "Vitis vinifera" being one of its sources.

Pepos, characterized by a hard outer rind, have also been used as containers by removing the inner flesh and seeds and then drying the remaining exocarp. The English name of "Lagenaria siceraria", "bottle gourd", reflects its use as a liquid container. Some true berries have also been used as a source of dyes. In Hawaii, these included berries from a species of "Dianella", used to produce blue, and berries from black nightshade ("Solanum americanum"), used to produce green. Cucurbit berries

Although lantanas are generally hardy and, being somewhat toxic, usually rejected by herbivores, they may still become infested with pests. The edibility of "Lantana" berries is contested. Some experts claim "Lantana" berries are edible when ripe though like many fruit are mildly poisonous if eaten while still green. Other experts claim that experimental research indicates that both unripe and ripe "Lantana" berries are potentially lethal, despite claims by others that ripe berries are not poisonous. Extracts

"Blue Lagoon: The Awakening" received more mixed reviews than the previous two films in the franchise, and was often compared favorably to the critically reviled 1980 film. Linda Stasi commented in "The New York Post", "Unlike the original where nudie scenes were followed by fornicating turtles (kill me!), here their 'awakening' is tastefully done with nothing much showing except their emotions." She assessed the film overall as silly but enjoyable. In contrast to Stasi, Rob Owen of the "Pittsburgh Post-Gazette" cited the lack of physical explicitness in

This was controversial, as Shields was 14 years old at the time of the filming. A body double was used for all of her nude scenes and her breasts remained covered in frontal shots. "The Blue Lagoon" was theatrically released on June 20, 1980 by Columbia Pictures. The film was panned by the critics, who disparaged its screenplay and execution and Shields's performance, although Almendros's cinematography received praise. In spite of criticism, the film was a

"The Blue Lagoon" was panned by critics. It holds a score of 9% on Rotten Tomatoes out of 22 reviews. Among the more common criticisms were the ludicrously idyllic portrayal of how children would develop outside of civilized society, the unfulfilled buildup of the island's natives as a climactic threat and the way the film, while teasing a prurient appeal, conspicuously obscures all sexual activities.

The other species worth to mention is blue crab. Waterfowl are the most common elements of the Akyatan fauna. Being on the migration route, rich habitat variety and suitable climate makes Akyatan an important place for birds. On an extensive study conducted in March–May 1990, 250 bird species were observed. During the migration period, thousands of birds stopover at Akyatan. Mud surfaces around the lake are

"Vaccinium" also includes cranberries, bilberries, and huckleberries. Commercial "blueberries" – including both wild ('lowbush') and cultivated ('highbush') blueberries – are all native to North America. The highbush blueberry varieties were introduced into Europe during the 1930s. Blueberries are usually prostrate shrubs that can vary in size from to in height.

Typically, berries are juicy, rounded, brightly colored, sweet or sour, and do not have a stone or pit, although many pips or seeds may be present. Common examples are strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, blackberries, red currants, white currants and blackcurrants. In Britain, soft fruit is a horticultural term for such fruits.

The first drive-in at what was a nine-hole course until 1989, took place on 1 July 1921. In 1931, a plan was proposed to develop the island and the waters between it and the coast. Called the "Blue Lagoon Scheme," this included dams and sluices at the Wooden Bridge and Sutton Channel, maintaining a high water level behind the island, which itself might hold some housing or tourism facilities. Further plans were advanced by Bord Failte, including conversion of much of the island as a theme park. The island is connected to the mainland by the Bull Bridge, today a

The mature, dark berries are usually but not exclusively used in cuisine, while gin is flavoured with fully grown but immature green berries. The flavor profile of young, green berries is dominated by pinene; as they mature this piney, resinous backdrop is joined by what Harold McGee describes as "green-fresh" and citrus notes. The outer scales of the berries are relatively flavourless, so the berries are almost always at least lightly crushed before being used as a spice. They are used both fresh and dried, but their

In August 1983, a group of twenty-five people in Monterey County, California became suddenly ill by ingesting elderberry juice pressed from fresh, uncooked "Sambucus mexicana" berries, leaves, and stems. The density of flavonoids (including cyanidin glycosides) is higher in tea made from flowers than it is in berries, and overall density of cyanidin glycosides is lower in flowers and berries collected from low-altitude trees compared to those at higher elevations. Elderberries are rich in anthocyanidins that combine to give elderberry juice an intense blue-purple coloration that turns reddish on dilution with water.

Before Europeans ventured into Ho-Chunk territory, the Ho-Chunk were known to hunt, farm and gather food from local sources, including nuts, berries, roots and edible leaves. They knew what the forest and river's edge had to give, and both genders had a role in making best use of resources. With the changing seasons, Ho-Chunk families would move from area to area to find food. For example, many families would return to Black River Falls, Wisconsin to pick berries in the summer.

He began selling the berries at his farm stand in 1932 and soon noticed that people kept returning to buy the large, tasty berries. When asked what they were called, Knott said, "Boysenberries," after their originator. His family's small restaurant and pie business eventually grew into Knott's Berry Farm. As the berry's popularity grew, Mrs. Knott began making preserves, which ultimately made Knott's Berry Farm famous.
