Loganberry – A Flavorful Cross Between Raspberry & Blackberry

Loganberries (Rubus × loganobaccus) are a vigorous, thorny hybrid between raspberries and blackberries, prized for their large, deep red berries with a rich, tangy-sweet flavor. These productive plants are ideal for home gardens, fruit farms, and edible landscapes.

Growing Conditions:

Sunlight: Full sun (at least 6–8 hours daily) for best fruit production.

Soil: Well-draining, fertile soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (5.5–7.0).

Watering: Keep soil evenly moist, especially during flowering and fruiting. Avoid waterlogging.

Climate: Thrives in temperate regions; requires winter chill for optimal fruiting.

Support: Needs a trellis or wire system to support sprawling canes.

Pruning: Remove old canes after fruiting to encourage new growth and higher yields.

Fertilizer: Apply organic compost or a balanced fertilizer in early spring and after fruiting.

Harvest Season: Late spring to summer. Fruits ripen over several weeks and are best picked when deep red and slightly soft.

A must-have for berry lovers, Loganberries are perfect for fresh eating, jams, desserts, and freezing. Add them to your edible garden for a rewarding harvest season!
