Red Berry
Strawberries are one of the berries that we grow that will have red berry, yellow berry but it is the other way around, the fruit will be greenish yellow before it changes to its ripe color. When a strawberry turns red it is ready to eat. People who are afraid of strawberries have a phobia referred to as fragariaphobia.

The worst thing about Hive: people generally learn rules by being punished for things they don't know.
The best thing about Hive: we can all help each other know.
I've had gooseberries and tomatillos, but nothing quite like those ground cherries. We have many native reddish berries here in the mountains, including bearberries, huckleberries, and honeysuckle. I can't think of any native yellow berries off hand, but aren't yellow cherry tomatoes technically berries?
They say tomatoes are a fruit but as far as I am concerned, they are vegetables. Ground cherries taste good and are the only yellow berries that I know of.
I have had golden raspberries before.
