Hybrid berry canes such as Boysenberry, Tayberry, and Loganberry produce the giants of the berry world.
They freeze well and the fruit makes a fantastic, tasty and unusual addition to crumbles, summer puddings, fruit salads, or with cereal in the morning.

Jostaberries are a sharp flavoured, extremely vigorous bush: a cross between currant and gooseberries that will crop reasonably well in quite shady locations - a lot of fun to grow if you have space for one!

FAQs

You can grow hybrid berries in a sunny spot along a wall or a fence, supporting them with horizontal wires.

What berries are hybrid?

Most hybrid berries are a cross between two different Rubus species. Commercial growers breed these for their vigorous growth, delicious fruit, and easy maintenance. You will also find that many of the best hybrid berries are thornless, making them much easier to harvest and maintain. Our hybrid berries list includes jostaberry, loganberry, blackberry, boysenberry, and tayberry.

What is a jostaberry?

While you might be familiar with blackberries and boysenberries, some other hybrid berries may be unfamiliar. A jostaberry is a hybrid cross between a blackcurrant and a gooseberry. This hybrid produces sweet fruits that are excellent for making jams and other desserts or cakes. Best of all, our jostaberry hybrid is thornless, disease-resistant, and a vigorous grower.

What is a loganberry?

A loganberry is a hybrid cross between a raspberry and a blackberry. A loganberry plant produces large fruits that are very popular for jam making. They have a deep dark red colour and produce a bumper crop between July and September. Our particular loganberry variety is thornless and won the Royal Horticultural Society Award of Garden Merit. It’s also self-fertile, and you can grow it in a partially shady spot in the garden.

What is a tayberry?

A tayberry is also a raspberry and blackberry cross. It is named after the River Tay in Scotland and was officially patented in 1979. It produces a delicious crop of dark red to purple fruit whether grown in full sun or partial shade. Our tayberry variety is thornless, has heavy cropping, and will grow happily in most soil types. Because the fruiting canes are thornless, this plant is much easier to train and maintain. The berries can be up to 4cm in length.

What berry is not a berry?

Raspberries, blackberries, strawberries, and mulberries are not berries in the botanical world. Most of these are aggregate fruits or accessory fruits because the flowers are formed by many ovaries merging together.
