All three tall shrubs of Vaccinium are blooming now on the island. Vaccinium parvifolium is usually the last to start. There are only a few shrubs blooming behind the garden next to the wood shed.

There are several Alaska blueberries (Vaccinium alaskense) blooming along the trail near the house. The Early blueberries are on the back side of full bloom, some flowers have lost their petals and look like there might be fruit developing.
