Telling the different species of Rubus apart can be a taxonomist's worst nightmare, but for one interested in eating, it doesn't matter – they're all edible. This species is the common black raspberry, which attracts birds into the mix with its tasty fruits. This plant suckers and will form a sizeable clump, so site accordingly!
