Hawthorne Berries?

I'm overdyeing one of my mold-dyed pieces with soaked hawthorne berries. At least I think these are hawthorne berries. I bought them at an herb store in Chinatown, and the box was marked hawthorne berries, but the package said D.H. Berry. I thought hawthorne berries were smaller than this, but maybe these are Chinese hawthorne berries. Who knows? I'm hoping for a golden yellow color.
When I'm working with mold and natural dyes, I feel like either a mad scientist or a witch (in the good sense of the word) brewing up potions. I always have pots of weird stuff boiling on the patio in my backyard. The worst was the blue-green algae. It smelled like a swamp, and got even smellier when I heated it up.
I have an idea for collaging together different pieces of mold-dyed and naturally-dyed fabrics, and I'm anxious for the mold-dyed pieces to be done so I can start playing around with it.
