A dark red/black or white fruit (similar to a boysenberry). The fruit will form on year-old wood. The fruit is sweet and juicy and contains vitamins C, K, B and E, potassium, magnesium, iron and fibre. Also contains anti-inflammatory properties.

Growing Conditions

Best grown in full sun away from pathways and driveways. A deep, well-drained loam soil is preferred, fairly drought tolerant, but likes plenty of water when in fruit. Initially, prune for sound structure, and removing tips will encourage more fruiting spurs. A copper spray in autumn will help prevent black spot and powdery mildew.
