Subject: Question about Blackberries
Date: Wed, 18 Oct 2006 16:44:29 -0500
... I collect heirloom seeds and plants from gardeners in the Madison area.
I
received some berry roots from someone and I am growing them in my yard. I
can best describe them as a type of blackberries with very vibrant, thorny
brambles.
My source was not sure what they were called but she thought they came
from Germany. I have been trying to find a European berry called
"Himmelbeer" in German.
Can you give me any information about this fruit? Is it a bramble type
plant?
I have heard of a Himalaya berry which grows in California and is a
blackberry bramble. So perhaps my source was wrong about where her plant
comes from.
Any information you could give me on the German "Himmelbeer" would be
welcome.
