Plant details
This is a delicious soft fruit that has a little of the flavour of grapes and makes good jams and jellies. Although it is grouped together with raspberries and blackberries, the wineberry is not a cross, but a species in its own right. It's very decorative with arching canes that are covered with soft, russet bristles that glow in the winter. The fruits are smaller than blackberries and are coloured orange to cherry red.
