I have red raspberries, wild black cap raspberries, marionberries, boysenberries and something else. They were given to me and I didn't think they survived but they did and in the meantime I forgot what they are <g> I planted two kinds of grapes but only one is fruiting. The other type just keeps getting bigger and bigger. I think I'll radically prune it back this spring!

I also have two types of strawberries, the regular old ones and Alpines. LOVE the Alpines!

Linda mentioned being over run with strawberries. That's one that I'm
going to start in spring. I started some elderberries last spring,
they did great and I actually got enough to make jelly. I'm starting
more this year. I also have concord grapes.

I'm also starting some blackberries. Both thorned and thornless
varieties. I have a small garden that is going to be grapes, thornless
blackberries and dwarf fruit trees. God help me if it ever gets away
from me, it will be a jungle.

Does anyone else grow cultivated berries?
