    R - Rutabaga is a root vegetable that belongs to the Brassica genus of plants, whose members are informally known as cruciferous vegetables. It's round with a brownish-white color and looks similar to a turnip. In fact, it's commonly referred to as a cross between a turnip and a cabbage. (google)

    S - Salmonberry

    Salmonberry is a stout shrub ranging in height between 3 to 12 feet, with perennial, not biennial, woody stems that are covered with fine prickles. The stems are not as densely armed with thorns as other well-sought-after endemic berries, so it makes for a more enjoyable harvest. The bark becomes papery with age.
