Loganberry

The Loganberry is a natural hybrid between a European red raspberry and a North American trailing blackberry. Long, juicy, maroon fruit are produced on thornless, trailing canes. 

With a delicious, complex flavour, the fruit are excellent for fresh eating, cooking and preserves. Expect 6-15 pounds of fruit per mature plant. 

Trailing canes need support, but this thornless variety is easy to handle.
