Keriberry (Cutting) ^7/10

Comments: -

Similar in taste to Boysenberries. Holds its fruit in clusters at the end of its canes. Fruits in winter when other fruit is scarce. Does not produce large volumes of fruit together like the Boysenberry does, but produces smaller volumes over a prolonged period. Grow on a trellis to keep off the ground. Said to be native, but other information suggests it was imported a lot of years ago. Worth a go.
