We grow them here in Z6 MA trained between wires. They tip-root if you let them so they are really easy to propagate. The plants we have are descended from wild ones we dug up in central PA -- I don't know about any named cultivars, but if you manure, water, and prune them even a ten-foot row of random wineberries will yield an amazing amount of fruit. They seem to do best in an area that gets a couple of hours of shade.

couple years ago I found a berry cane that grew wild between my hedges. I decided to leave it alone until I found the type of berries it bears. It had a good crop of berry in july, I like them better than raspberries. They were small pink berries, flavour is great. I just recently found out it's a Wineberry, aka Japanese raspberries. They seem to grow wild in Pa.

Are there any known cultivars of Wineberries? would love to have one that bears larger fruits.
