Dear Robert,
I think it will be very good to have an article on
Wineberry ion Fruitipedia. Can you do it. It does not have to be
SCHOLARLY PIECE of writing. Just an introductory article like many on such
minor fruits in Fruitipedia.
So please DO write and send one.
If ANY OTHER MEMBER can do it, he is also
welcome.
Thanks,

Wineberry
I've grown wineberries from plants I bought from Edible
Landscaping. There wasn't a named variety. The fruit are prettier
than raspberries and taste a bit different - tart until they are fully
ripe. In my garden, it spreads a little but isn't really a pest, and I
occasionally get seedlings popping up here or there. The seedlings seem
pretty much identical to the parent, so it may already be inbred. I get
a some winter damage in my location.

Anyone
in the eastern half of our continent have any experience growing wineberry
(Rubus phoenicolasius)? Aside from being delicious, I know it is used
in raspberry breeding. Are there any cultivars available? Anyone
ever started a planting from seed? Other than the responsibility of
keeping the planting from running wild and creating more problems for
natives, is the there any reason to reconsider planting it on our
farm? (Pest, disease, marketing or other issues). For now,
I'm off to pick as many as I can reach from amongst the poison ivy at the
edge of the field!
