It's one of my favorite times of the year.  As a kid growing up on a farm, we would find small patches of wild black raspberry's growing around the 150 acre farm.  But for the past 3-4 years, I have my very own crop of wild black raspberry's growing in our back yard. cheers   The berry's are easily half the size of commercial red raspberry's.  But have a wonderful taste all their own.  A little bit more seedy as well.  They start off red and turn black as they ripen.  In the wild, the canes usually snake along the ground.  But I built a support and the canes grow up the 7' (2.1m) to the top of the support and then grow back to the ground for a total of appox. 14' (4.3m) long.
Not to be confused with blackberry's.

Excellent Larry. Very Happy  Most people around here, especially in the city, have never heard of black raspberry's. Or they confuse them with blackberry's.

I wish that the patch here was bigger. What a Face
