 The Tayberry plant is a cross between a blackberry and a red raspberry with thorns and a very large aromatic fruit. The sweet fruit is beautiful purple and can be eaten fresh or cooked into jams, jellies and more.

Tayberries grow best with a soil pH between 6.0-6.8. Tayberries grow reasonably well in almost all soils and even in deep shade. They will produce best in a medium, well-drained soil that contains organic matter.

Space your plants 3-4 feet apart. Dig a hole around 5 inches deep and spread the roots out, keeping the crown of the roots level with the soil surface. Cover them with soil, pat down firmly with your hand. Trim the cane to a length of 10 inches. Water your plant thoroughly. Keep the soil moist until the plant becomes established.

The Tayberry was developed near the Tay River valley in Scotland and named after it. The fruit is good and can be used to make great preserves or toppings for ice cream and yogurt!
