  • »  Cross between a blackberry and a red raspberry

The ‘Loganberry’ is the favorite for home gardens. It bears large, deep wine-red berries that are a cross between a blackberry and a red raspberry. Loganberries ripen in July and are strong & vigorous growers. Berries should be allowed to darken to a deep wine-red to purple color before picking to obtain the best-flavored fruit. The loganberry is slightly longer than a raspberry with a juicier and sharper flavor. Loganberries are undemanding and easy to grow, and continue to fruit for many years. The rich, fresh tasting flavor of the loganberry will leave you wanting for more. This is a vigorous, trailing plant that is a favorite for making syrup, preserves and desserts. Loganberries have a distinct and moderately tart flavor, small seed and like the red raspberry, contain a hollow core.
