Description
We find Loganberries easy to grow, the stems are thornless, and the fruit has a sharp taste. Excellent for jam making, pies etc. The loganberry is generally thought to be a cross between a European red raspberry and a blackberry.
Cane fruits, fruiting on 2nd year wood, can be trained on wires or along a fence like summer raspberries.
Loganberries are an excellent source of manganese, an essential nutrient for the body.
