Rivina humilis
Pigeonberry is a perennial herb about 1 foot tall that grows beneath trees and shrubs. The flowers are about 1/4 inch across, white to pink, growing on the last 2–3 inches of the stems. The fruits are numerous, red and almost translucent, often appearing on the lower part of the stem while the upper part is still blooming.
These were the largest pigeonberry plants I had ever seen. They were growing below Belton Dam, on the edge of the woods.
