Unusual Berry Fruit Plant Collection brings together two distinctive hybrid berries for a productive and flavour-packed fruit garden: a thornless boysenberry and Tayberry Buckingham.

Boysenberry produces juicy purple-black fruit with a rich blackberry-like flavour, while thornless Tayberry Buckingham bears large dark purple-red berries with a sweet-sharp taste. Both are excellent freshly picked and equally useful for puddings, jams and freezing.

Train the vigorous canes on wires or against a fence and prune out fruited stems after harvest, tying in the new growth for the following year.
