BJ says... My native Raspberries are fruiting now. probus and rosifolious. They are quite good. Sweeter than any store bought raspberries, or any home grown ones I can grow here (Heritage and Autumn Bliss). I'd compare them to the shatoot mulberries, which are sweeter than a true mulberry, but dont have the complexity of a true mulberry. The native raspberries can get very large, are usually sweeter than a regular raspberry, but lack the tart complexity of a really good raspberry. I have tasted a few that were on the insipid side though. I cut mine back in spring/summer just after the cane has finished fruiting, so they can get good growth for the next season in late winter. | About the Author Theposterformerlyknownas Brisbane 10th August 2011 12:47pm #UserID: 3270 Posts: 1552 View All Theposterformerlyknownas's Edible Fruit Trees |

Mike says... In the wild up here they are common along rainforest tracks between 700m and 1300m altitude and vary quite a bit between locations.Many are insipid but some areas have plants with much larger and sweeter fruit and in parts of the Lamb Range and Mt Lewis you can pick a kg in an hour.I ate a large hollow one with a stink bug inside and it tempered my enthusiasm. | About the Author Cairns 15th August 2011 9:58pm #UserID: 0 Posts: View All 's Edible Fruit Trees |
