Vaccinium ovatum is a North American species of huckleberry in the heather family commonly known as the evergreen huckleberry, winter huckleberry, cynamoka berry and California huckleberry. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] It has a large distribution on the Pacific Coast of North America ranging from southern British Columbia to southern California.
Plants raised in protected conditions usually need a period of acclimatization, known as hardening off (see also frost hardiness). Also, root disturbance should be minimized. The stage of growth at which transplanting takes place, the weather conditions during transplanting, and treatment immediately after transplanting are other important factors.

The evergreen huckleberry, Vaccinium ovatum, is turning purple all over Washington’s coastal regions but perhaps nowhere more than the Key Peninsula, where berry culture goes back decades.
The amount of fruit produced by these shrubs is legendary, with stories being told of mountain sides turned purple by all of the fruit, or shrubs being weighed to the ground by large, and abundant berries. [14] The huckleberry is the official state fruit of Idaho, with this particular species assumed to be the huckleberry in question. [15]
[6] [7] Another cultivated species of similar size and habitats is the evergreen Vaccinium ovatum (evergreen huckleberry). As a crop plant (along with the other huckleberries of the genus in western North America), it is not currently grown on a large commercial agriculture scale, despite efforts to make this possible.
