Description
Boysenberry | Rubus ursinus
There is nothing quite as unique as a boysenberry, offering up both the dark color and syrupy sweetness of a blackberry with the tart richness of a raspberry running through the background. A true culinary delicacy and prized ingredient for preserves, desserts, and sauces to accompany grilled or roasted meat. Self-pollinating. Due to their short shelf life once picked, the only way to enjoy fresh boysenberries is to grow them yourself! They are easy to grow in full sun in well-drained soil.
Planting Depth: 1 Inches
Bulbs per Square Foot: 1
Plant Height: 240-300 In
In many cases, you may still want to plant pollinating partners to increase the size of your crops, but with self-pollinating varieties doing so is optional. You'll get fruit with only one plant!
