Boysenberry Fruit Tree
Boysenberry Fruit Tree
The Boysenberry fruit tree is a delightful hybrid bramble known for its large, juicy, and sweet berries, which are a cross between blackberries, raspberries, and loganberries. This deciduous vine typically grows to about 1-2 meters in height and can spread widely, making it perfect for trellising or as ground cover. The plant produces beautiful white to pink flowers in spring, which attract pollinators, followed by an abundant harvest of deep maroon berries in summer. Boysenberries thrive in well-drained, fertile soils and prefer full sun to partial shade, making them an excellent choice for home gardens.
