BOUNTIFUL BERRIES

Did you know that the botanical definition of a berry is a fleshy fruit produced from one ovary?  With that being said, the following are considered true berries. . . pumpkin, watermelon, grapes, bananas, tomatoes, honeysuckle, etc.  Other fruits that we typically think of as berries are not berries in the botanical sense. They may be what we call drupes or stone fruit (acai berry), epigynous fruits (blueberries), or compound fruits (strawberries).

However, for this exercise I am including those that we think of as berries.  See if you can discover 12 more known berries hidden in this puzzle (I did blue.  . . berries for you).  All the letters need to connect -- either up, down, sideways or diagonal to form the word.
