Meaning of "dangleberry" in English

The term "dangleberry" refers to a type of shrub commonly found in the eastern United States, known scientifically as Gaylussacia frondosa. It produces dark blue to black berries that are edible, although not commonly consumed due to their relative obscurity compared to more popular berries. The dangleberry plant belongs to the Heath family and grows in sandy, acidic soils, often in wooded or hilly areas. Its berries have a sweet-tart flavor and are sometimes used in jams or jellies.
