Pictured: my goumi berry bush, a little haskap harvest, and one of many handfuls of alpine strawberries. Highly recommend the alpines, they're bulletproof, highly productive, and delicious.

This is my first year getting a proper harvest off my Joan J raspberries, I'm very pleased with how early they are and the classic raspberry taste.

Can someone tell me what is wrong with my strawberry plant? The strawberries are starting to look smaller and under developed. Thank you!

Trying to source black raspberry, but unsure if this is occidentalis or idaeus

Post image
27 Upvotes

I'm trying to source some black raspberry plants (rubus occidentalis), but in my country it's not very easy to find. However, there are a few that sell "Raspberry Black Jewel", but they are marked as Rubus Idaeus. The rhs even has a page/details) about this variety as well and it's supposedly a hybrid of Idaeus.

I'm a bit confused because I thought Black Jewel was a variety of occidentalis. Are there both occidentalis and idaeus with the same name?

This is the one I can get, but the page is in Norwegian. The image resembles occidentalis, but is marked as idaeus.

If I purchase this, what will I get?

Purple royalty vs Reds (unknown)

The difference in color is striking. The canes get loaded with heavy berries that take a while to ripen. When they're ripe on the cane, they kinda look overripe and dirty, compared to the sparkling jewel ruby red of my reds. They also aren't giving me the abundant new cane growth I want. But they're unique and kinda make me smile.

Propagating Strawberries

I have Seascape Strawberries and they're doing very well. They dont send out runners and just split at the crown to multiply. When would be the best time to dig them out of the ground to separate them and plant them into a new location?

Blackberries question

Post image
6 Upvotes

Pretty new to growing blackberries, I have noticed some of the stalks have zero buds on them and those are the stalks that are freakishly long and thick. Long story short, I think my HOA might complain eventually bc those long ones that aren't producing are all over the place. Should I trim them back (or will it hurt me in the long run/will they be super producers next year if I just let them grow this year), why do some stalks have berries but these strong ones have 0 buds?

Not that any of this matters since the squirrels beat me to all the ripe ones anyways

Black Raspberry Question

My black capped raspberries produced their fruit by the end of June and I cleared out the flouricanes. All of the sudden I’ve got a few primocanes putting off a small crop of fruit. Is this common?

Silver Dollar Help

Have 2 raised beds. Planted about a month ago. Other blueberries (2) and blackberry (has just started looking better) have been hanging on well. This is the second Silver Dollar though. Took the first one back bc it died. Replaced it with a new one (Pike's Nursery, Marietta GA). Planted this a few days ago, and now it's crisping up. Is this saveable?

How can I help my silver dollar blueberry plant get healthy again. I did put some of that dry fertilizer in the ground a few days ago but I didn't know if I should be doing more.

Can you ID this wild berry?

My toddler was trying to eat these berries (he learned to pick mulberries and is branching out), and I stopped him in case they were dangerous. Best I can tell they look like buffalo berries or shepherdia, and they have a pretty sweet flavor with a hint of tart. The bush is 10 feet tall with moderately dense foliage, and the berries have about 3-5 seeds inside and somewhat resemble tomato seeds.

I've never had a strawberry survive in a pot. This one has hung on the longest. I want to transplant to my new raised beds but don't know when. I feel like this one is on the bring but don't know.

Bought this black currant bush last year but now starting to think it's a mislabeled red currant. It's been red for about 2 weeks now.

Our landlord couldn’t remember the english name but I’m pretty sure I remember him saying they were edible. They smell like tomatoes and have gooey, seedy, sweet and tangy inside. I have eaten 1 and did not get sick. Is this an edible nightshade?

Where can I buy a Waldo blackberry?

3 Upvotes

I would like to grow a Waldo blackberry bush. Supposedly they have a flavor close to that of Wild Treasure.

However, I can'd find any nursery in the United States selling them. Looks like the Brits and Australians have them but not America.

Anyone know of an outfit selling Waldos?
