Until today i thought blackberries were blackberries but i didn,t realise there were different types. I was doing a bit of pruning in our wooded garden and found some nice juicy ones which i ate, then noticed they had a lovely pink flower similar to a ragged robin flower and lovely pink colour and the leaves are different. I looked them up but have forgotten already what they are called ( sorry getting older and brain cells don,t work as well  ) they were just as tasty as the other type  |

Actually thinking about it I think tayberries are like large raspberries; will have to look it up. |

They are pretty! The marionberry is another manmade cross - they do have nice fruit but so rampant and vicious! |

Took this pic yesterday, on the picture the flowers look white but they are a lovely pink colour just must of been the way the light was shining on them made them look white. They are growing in amongst the rhodies but you can see the pretty spiky leaves on them, fruit just looks like blackberries.
Garnet never heard of marionberries need to google them now |

Aren't tayberries a manmade cross? We have marionberries in our garden - there when we moved in 33 years ago and still trying to eradicate the most vicious brambles known to mankind! |

Just had to google them again, they are evergreen blackberries, the leaf is different and they have a pretty pink flower. Off to google tayberries now and see what they look like, sitting waiting for the vet to arrive so time on my hands . |
