Welcome to my user page

The blackberry is an edible fruit produced by many species in the genus Rubus in the family Rosaceae. Blackberries are typically produced from hybrid plants among the species within the subgenus Rubus, or hybrids between the subgenera Rubus and Idaeobatus. Similar to the raspberry, it is not a berry in the botanical sense, being classified as an aggregate fruit composed of small drupelets. Blackberries are perennial plants bearing biennial stems from their roots. Unmanaged plants tend to aggregate in a dense tangle of stems and branches, which can be controlled in gardens or farms using trellises. Blackberry shrubs can tolerate poor soils, spreading readily in wasteland, ditches, and roadsides. Blackberries grow wild throughout most of Europe. They are an important element in the ecology of many countries, and harvesting the berries is a common pastime. In some parts of the world, however, there are blackberry species that are considered to be an invasive species. The fruit is also grown commercially, with Mexico being the leading producer, exporting for sale in off-season fresh markets in North America and Europe. This photograph, which was focus-stacked from 23 separate images, depicts a blackberry of the species Rubus fruticosus.Photograph credit: Ivar Leidus
