4 months ago would've been toward the end of its growing season and beginning its dormancy. Most berries don't produce in its first year of growth
It certainly looks like it, but I don't remember seeing any fruit--whether it produced earlier in the year, I'm not sure. And it wasn't flowering.
Isn't this a berry, too?
