Bassem,

Thanks for mentioning wineberries (Rubus phoenicolasius) as a shade tolerant choice. 

Last Sunday at a church dinner, one family brought a fruit salad with thawed wineberries.  I was amazed how well their color and texture survived the freeze/thaw cycle; they did not bleed into the colorless liquid nor stain the banana slices.  Definitely different from any other raspberry or blackberry we've thawed for fresh use before.
