Over the past few weeks we've been getting the odd handful of berries off our small patch of raspberry canes. Today I noticed they were dripping with fruit. Some so ripe they fell off as I brushed past the plant. It's going to be raspberries and ice-cream for desert. 08 Mar 2010
Wild blackberries are a bit of a curse round here, growing rampantly wherever they can. However at this time of year they redeem themselves somewhat by offering up sweet berries. In addition to the thorny wild plants, we have a thornless variety in the garden that produces larger, more accessible berries.
