Blackberries
Rubus fruticosus |
Blackberries have long been called bramble bushes and
the medicinal uses of the berries have been known for
thousands of years. "Colonists called bramble
bushes 'lawyers' in Shakespeare’s day because their
stiff, sharp thorns grab hold of you and don’t let go
until they’ve drawn blood."*
Although the bushes
appear similar for the red raspberry and black caps, the
leaves
are noticeably different.

| The leaves of the wild blackberry
more often come in groups of five. They are more
deeply veined and the stems have more of a reddish
color. |

| The leaves of
the wild red raspberry bush come in groups of three, but
may be in groups of five during its first year.
The leaves are a lighter and more deeply veined than the
back caps. |

come in groups of three like its cousin the red
raspberry bush. The leaves are a little darker and less
deeply veined. |
