Thornless Loganberry Plant
- The most famous of all hybrid berries, this beauty was bred in California and brings with it the sweet taste of summer in the sunshine
- Somewhat similar to raspberries in appearance, many people find their aromatic, sweet flavour to be far superior
- This fine, aromatic flavour lends itself well to making impressive jams. For special occasions only.
- The stem will require support to keep it trained upright and productive
- Performs well in a sunny spot or with partial shade.
- Harvest from late July through to August.Â
